Offer "Use OpenStreetMap website style mouse bindings for dragging the map" preference

[jidanni]

It's so frustrating.

We all know JOSM has reversed left and right mouse buttons for dragging
the map, vs. all other mapping programs and/or websites.

OK, here's my workaround:
Purchase a second mouse, and in .xsession:

set 'Genius Optical Mouse'
if xinput --list --name-only | grep -xq "$@"
then xinput --set-button-map "$@" 3 2 1
fi

OK, that works! But it also affects clicking checkboxes etc.
So we can't just have a "special second JOSM mouse"
but we have to remember to use it only when dragging the map!

Looking in Preferences, we see
"[ ] Reverse zoom with mouse wheel"

That's great. Offering choices.

OK, but can you *please* also offer:
"Use OpenStreetMap website style mouse bindings for dragging the map".

Closed as duplicate of #4760.
No, sorry. You have no idea of the implications, if would require to rewrite an insame amount of code.

(Alas, a simple ​layer of abstraction would have allowed ​right hand drivers to drive such left hand car, without affecting mental coordination for weeks following. Alas, ​hard wiring was chosen.

See also ​https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_memory for effects on the user and his use of other programs. ​Note 1.)

In fact this boils down to a simple ​handedness ​accessibility issue. E.g.,

(Though we are talking about fingers instead of hands.)
