   Could you tell me one example of this?  It seems like a rather
   inconvenient interface for a button to have two different meanings,
   one for up and one for down.

In Custom buffers, down-mouse-1 usually sets point and mouse-1
performs the action.  When a menu is involved, down-mouse-2 displays
the menu, you then move the mouse and mouse-2 selects your choice of
the menu entries.

Sincerely,
