Never mind, xev just told me that it doesn't only bounce, but when I
press and hold it, most times the ButtonPress event is immediately
followed by a ButtonRelease, and then, about a second later, another
ButtonPress. Then, sometimes it stays pressed, sometimes there's another
ButtonRelease, sometimes a few press-release sequences follow in short
succession... Sounds pretty impossible to reliably detect this, so I
guess I'll just try to fix it myself, and, failing that, either live
with it or bite the bullet and send it in.

Cheers,
Oliver
