I just installed lxde 0.5.5 (openbox 3.5.0) on Debian wheezy. It came with this kind of Root context menus definition in lxde-rc.xml:

<context name="Root">
      <!-- Menus -->
      <mousebind button="Middle" action="Press">
        <action name="ShowMenu">
          <menu>client-list-combined-menu</menu>
        </action>
      </mousebind>
      <mousebind button="Right" action="Press">
        <action name="ShowMenu">
          <menu>root-menu</menu>
        </action>
      </mousebind>
</context>

I tried to change root-menu activation by left mouse button by editing in above "Right" to "Left", but the result is that nothing happens when i press left mouse button (and now of course also right button).

This used to work ok on Debian squeeze with openbox 3.4.11.1.

There was nothing wrong with openbox.  It was pcmanfm that was eating left mouse button on desktop.  Solution was to disable autostart of pcmanfm.
