Re: [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

 

No, it doesn't happen often at all that you accidentally click on a file
twice and on the file name the second time (millions of people are used to
it), it's just an excuse to justify your silly decision.
Like I said, implementing it as an option wouldn't hurt anybody, especially
with a default setting disabled, and wouldn't take much of an effort either.
But again, Linux people always know what's good for everybody and so
everybody should adapt to them. Good luck with this approach and keep
waiting for the year of the Linux. ;)
