Its a bit more quirky than that, mouse-save-then-kill doesn't kill text if you click with mouse-3 twice (this is not a double-click). Also xterm mouse functionality is still available for double/triple mouse clicks by holding down the SHIFT key while pressing the mouse button. Maybe the previous documentation was deliberately vague for that reason. Sorry, I've not been very helpful by offering anything better. Perhaps xt-mouse could be improved further to accept multi-clicks (I might look at this one day). Although, perhaps it will also become less important when the multi-tty branch is merged in, as then presumably remote connections which don't allow X can be displayed with a local X application (?).
