Middle-button emulation for two-button mice is disabled by default.

        gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.mouse
        middle-button-enabled true

fixes it.  But I don't understand that choice (or the one-pixel border)
either.

That said, I mostly find GNOME 3 usable on my laptop and acceptable on
my desktop.  Not nearly perfect yet, but usable.
