Autocad doesnt work properly in 3d, only allowing certain actions on the current coordinate plane, I also use microstation which does have fully functional 3d drawing, and as a draughtsman for over 30 years I have never yet found anything other than a standard mouse to be necessary. unless you are working in a 3d package that only works with a specialist mouse, I cant see the problem. for me a standard mouse and direct input of the coordinates is the quickest route, you do need to be able to visualise what you are trying to achieve.
I can see that a special mouse might be needed for the fuzzy logic 3d graphics / virtualization, but for accurate drawing you need to be using the coordinates.
