Why is this needed when we have the 'More info' link (1 click) that does the same thing?

Comment 2

[David McNamara [:mackers]]

This is trivial to implement.

1. Added a dblclick handler to the addon binding that does the same as the "more info" link.

2. I also added a dblclick handle to the collection binding that does the same as the "view collection" link.

If I double click on the More info link, the page opens 3 times.

Where do you see "More Info"? Please post screenshot.
Are you in Tools | Add-ons | Subscriptions?
Select an addon in one of your collection. The only options that show up are "Publish to" and "Add to Firefox".

Anyway you have no default action for double click. This will increase userability and convenience.

We may want to do something or add some options when we right click too. Currently right click on the addon or the collection does nothing.

Odd, I can't repro this anymore. Closing again.
