This doesn't help from a visual point of view, but from (another) design thread ;-) Eben re-affirmed a design intention that left clicking on any button that has no primary action, should immediately display its full palette (like a right click). The idea being that such buttons primary actions ARE to reveal palettes when clicked. This came up with regard buddy icons, but would also apply to some frame buttons (e.g. device icons for battery, and network have no primary action when clicked), and to some Activity toolbar buttons (such as the new "Share with:").
