I found a simpler solution which works really well, as it provides the
fallback directly on mouse-1 itself:
Measure the time between the mouse-1 down event and the up event, and
if it less than 300 ms (configurable), follow the link, else do what
mouse-1 normally does.
So a "fast" click follows the link, a slightly slower click sets the
point (or whatever mouse-1 does). Dragging the mouse also inhibits
following the link.
Here is a patch:
