"The issue is that when three tap is performed on a touchpad, a middle button
click may be emitted.
...
disabling three-touch tap to click by default is the best option. Users who
want the functionality are still free to enable it themselves using the xinput
utility
...
The Unity action on a three-touch tap would be to show the resize ("love")
handles."

Title:
Ubuntu patch unconditionally breaks three-finger tap
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
The Ubuntu gnome-settings-daemon package contains a patch
disable_three_touch_tap.patch which unconditionally disables three-
finger tap.
This is annoying. I want to tap with three fingers to paste.
There's a comment mentioning some kind of gestures, but whatever they
are, nothing seems to happen on my system.
