My 3 ¢

a) lmb+rmb is no "usability advance" since it's possible but incredibly hard to
do that (the timeframe is somewhat < 40ms ...) -> no usability advance at all
b) the mmb is not an option at all, since other than on windows it's
traditionally used for X11's clipboard (by default) and other operations, ie.
it's generally taken by clients.
c) clicking the desktop with how many buttons or modifiers ever would actually
not be too hard, kwin effects just could add dbus interfaces being called by
plasma -or other clients- on mouseclick events (kwin cannot intercept them at
all since it doesn't know whether the click should maybe go to some plasmoid)

In general afair mouseevents were supposed to become a KAction feature and
should than (implicitly) be available for any kwin shortcuts as well.
