Exactly what is inconsistent? That mouse down does not clear the
selected
part or that it doesn't set mark, or something else?
Each of the three mouse buttons has another standard meaning in Emacs
which is different from this. So this is going to be an incompatible
change.
Perhaps use of Mouse-2 is an acceptable incompatible change.
Normally, Mouse-2 in Dired will select the file you clicked on.
Making it do something different when there is a region might be ok.
