[Bug 1189088] Re: Unity Dash, left mouse button starts preview instead of directly the application

 

Oh no, for files PLEASE don't force an extra step on users just to open
a known file. Left clicking should ALWAYS open anything clicked, and
right clicking should ALWAYS preview it. It would be terribly clumsy to
have to wade through previews of files that are already well known to
the user when he just wants to open the stinking file.
