dino99, the comment you refer to was an answer to Michael's question
about how to emulate the button clicks to reproduce the problem. It was
not "the real issue" or a solution for the problem.
Anyway, I've just borrowed a mouse with Back+Forward buttons, and
reproduced the problem in Ubuntu 14.04. In addition to the areas
highlighted by Robert Roth, the Back button is also incorrectly treated
as a primary-click on apps in the "What's New" and "Top Rated" apps on
the home screen -- but oddly, not on the "Top Rated" apps in a section
screen like "Games". The Forward button seems to be incorrectly treated
as a primary-click only on the toolbar.

Title:
Hardware mouse 'back key' doesn't work always in USC
Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
software-center 5.0.1.4, 5.0.1.5, Ubuntu 11.10
software-center 5.1.10, Ubuntu 12.04
Problem 1
When clicking on a category that has no sub-categories like 'Accessories' or
'Fonts' mouse-back-button-click will highlight the entry over which the mouse
currently is instead of bringing me back to the USC main page.
Problem 2
When in a category with sub-categories like 'Developer Tools' and clicking
the mouse-back-button when the mouse is over a sub-category icon nothing
happens (no back-to-main-action is preformed).
Problem 3
When in a category with sub-categories like 'Developer Tools' and clicking
the mouse-back-button when the mouse is over a 'Top Rated Developer Tools' item
it acts like a left click and opens the top rated item instead of preforming a
back-to-main-menu action.
