    Another interface I have seen that having a down-event would enable is 
    to execute a common action on normal clicking of the button, but if the 
    mouse button is held down for around 1 - 2 seconds, then a menu appears 
    with less common related actions.

Can you tell us more about the graphical contexts where you've seen this?
Was it on buttons?  Menus?  Icons?
