I really like the look of your solution. I would prefer to use the + key, but the big question I have is:

If you're using xmodmap already (like we're doing for IceWM and the N810 keyboard), will this hack interfere with your already-loaded keymap? I'm hoping that each time you run xmodmap in your click-scripts it will only affect the mouse buttons, but if it erases the other mappings, I'll have to steer clear of this...
Hi Qole - While I have not explicitly tested this with the n810 keyboard (due to lacking of an n810), I am under the impression that it is incremental (e.g. it doesn't reset previous items unless specified). I'll try redefining another key and see if it remains preserved through execution of the mouse flipping scripts.

An alternative is for someone more knowledgeable than myself to figure out why that C++ program seems to only affect windows or the root window, but not both at once (although, if it only affects windows, it still could be useful for OS2008 games and the like potentially).
