I was mostly kidding when I mentioned my guess at the reasoning for
the default settings.  However, paradoxically, I mostly agree with Ted
and avoid using the mouse for every process *except* copy/cut & paste.
It's a horses for courses thing.  I use a bunch of other keyboard
shortcuts such as looking up help files in preference to using the
menu and mouse.  Emacs users who choose to change the default setting
in question will be unable to use the ones I use and end up not
becoming aware of the nifty things possible.

To that extent, I was not entirely joking.
