Please, add a checkbox, default disabled, to enable middle mouse button on touchpads. Systems for which this is relevant are at least Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A/UX21A/UX32VD. Libinput offers support for this since version 1.3.0.

For details, please see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707857

Closing as per https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707857#c13:
"
you don't actually need an option for this. the new middle button area is enabled by default and cannot be turned off. the middle button emulation is still there but will disappear over the next couple of libinput releases because with a physical area you don't need the emulation bit. So I don't think adding an option to GNOME CC is needed or preferable

That's even better. Thanks.
