I would prefer the dock-able thing. Working with my tablet, touching on the side instead of on the drawing is a negligible movement. I also prefer things not be mapped to middle mouse buttons because most mice don't have them (and tablets neither) and though a simultaneous click of right and left are often mapped to a middle mouse click, it isn't always reliable. You certainly wouldn't want (IMHO) to make this something that someone would have to do to use the tool.
