In response to this thread, I turned on single click mode and found it to be quite usable once it was explained how to do things. Even though it goes against what Mac, Windows, and most Linux distributions are doing, I think this single click file management thing could be a smart decision. It's sure to be a bit controversial like many Ubuntu design decisions are these days but I'd like to see this setting enabled for Alpha 1. Improved consistency, improved accessibility, and likely minor time savings once users adapt to the change.

I was one of the early screamers of "OMG! Window controls on the left side!" but quickly adjusted to it it kinda makes sense.

First my mouse movement was this
----- (Panel)                                                   
                                                                                           -----(Controls)

----(Menus)


-----(Window List)

Now


-----(Panel)
----(Controls
------(Menus


----(Window Lists)

Much more usable

Thank you design team
