Okay, this bug should be closed. It's not even relevant anymore.
But the new control center is still missing the option to set the acceleration 
properly. (There is none.)

$ xset m 0 0
will fix this.

I have found a way to make this auto-start each boot:

1) Open up a terminal and type:

#!/bin/bash
xset m 0 0

Save the file in your home folder as “mouse.sh” or anything. Just make
it end with “.sh”.

2) Let’s make this file executable.
chmod +x ~/mouse.sh

3) Let’s make Ubuntu run it automatically at each boot!
Open up the application called “Startup Applications”, and add a new one.
Name: whatever you want.
Command: ~/mouse.sh

Bug description:
  In the mouse preferences dialog, I can adjust the "acceleration" just fine, 
but
  the "sensitivity" has no effet whatsoever.
  Whether I set it all to minimum or maximum, doesn't make teh slightest 
difference.
  I use a generic PS/2 mouse.
