bug#49626: Why mouse-1 is not allowed on button links?

[Juri Linkov]

Tried to click mouse-1 on the button links in the 'dictionary' buffers
(from the built-in package lisp/net/dictionary.el),
but it does nothing, unlike mouse-2.  Should this patch be applied?
I'm asking because I'm not sure about its side effects to other packages.
