No! The mouse is broken or my Linux settings regarding to debouncing
issues are bad. I'm not the only one having this debouncing issue on his
Linux installs. I never tested another mouse or tried to correct the
Linux mouse settings, on newer Ubuntu installs there is an additional
issue regarding to the mouse wheel. I didn't find a new mouse that fit
to my ergonomically needs. It's a Trekker PS2 ball-mouse on a line, so
it's very flat. I never had health issues regarding to a bad keyboard or
mouse!

I only need double-clicks for some apps. All my Linux installs are set
to use single-clicks, so I'm not doing unconscious double-clicks. I even
don't use any other OS (and even if I should use e.g. Windows, I would
configure it to use single-clicks too).

It's a non-serious issue, I move Windows to empty places. Btw. if I try
to grab and drag the frame where the snapshot list is, it could happen,
that I'll grab and drag a clip and trim it without noticing it, because
seemingly the mouse release the clip and then grab the frame during the
movements.
