Right click menus don't work that well on a touchpad
That depends on the touchpad. Good touchpads (I'm not speaking of Apple) have two buttons next to the pad.
FYI the convention on single-button touchpads, for OSX and for Linux at least, is to touch two fingers to the pad and then click the button.
Yes, and that is what I think is correctly described by the original poster as "not working well". Possible but painful.
Well, for me I find it actually quite simple and handy. Getting used to two-finger scroll probably helps a bit. In general I use the same movement as on an actual mouse: pointer finger for the left click and just add the middle finger for a right click.
