Admit or not, this whole problem wouldn't exist at all If Blender
would be consistent regarding RMB/LMB selection:

Every Beginner(TM) by default will try to select something by clicking
LMB. No matter what you say to him, he will do that intuitively
because every other application he has ever used has LMB for selecting
and RMB for menus. Why?

When Beginner(TM) finally accepts RMB, he tries to border/circle
select objects and he press B/C and RMB to select more objects...
ups... wait... you can't use RMB to border/circle select objects, you
have to use good old LMB to do that. Why?

And Beginner(TM) doesn't understand why he have to use RMB to select
object in 3D View and LMB to select that same object in Outliner. Why?
