Also works nicely for browsing eBay listings (which is basically a
search-result of a different kind,) and message forum topics

How would you normally do that if you didn't have a wheel mouse?  Seems
the wheel maps as a command-click like the right button is a

one as a command-click.  Allowed me with the iCab browser to open new tabs
with a click.
