As for using CTRL, that is already used for positioning the desktop contacts without snapping them to the edges of the screen.
Though, it would indeed be usefull for some if you also could set a hotkey (eg: ALT) which can be used to click-through.
However, the choice for the middle click and the hiding of the dekstop contact over using a hotkey and left click-through is actually better as it allows you to use any key and/or mouse combination or action to manupilate the underlying objects. With using a hotkey and click-through action you will always be limited to what you can do (eg: you can't use that particular hotkey anymore and you also can right click on the underlying object, etc)
the middle button has already been comfirmed as a "not working" bug by patchou
