I'd like to disable right-mouse-click pop-up menu in Ubuntu terminal so that mouse right click to be passed to the application (Midnight Commander, to select files with the right mouse button). How to achieve this?

According to Gnome-Terminal's Manual, there's no such function. You can always use another terminal emulator such as xterm:

selecting multiple folders via right click +  drag in xterm

This one doesn't have any sort of context menu. I've heard that you used to be able to do Shift + Right click in gnome-terminal, but it doesn't work (anymore).

    This was tracked in bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13299, and fixed in vte-0.36 / gnome-terminal-3.12.
