85781 - Click, release, click-hold is a double-click on mac

In composer, enter an image, or an hrule. Double-click on it. If the dialog 
happens to come up under where your mouse is (which is common), then you get a 
context menu *over* the dialog.

here's the problem, and it seems to be on all platforms but it's only wrong on
mac. click down, release, click down and hold and you get the dialog even though
(according to macOS guidelines) you haven't actually double-clicked yet. Since
we never get the 2nd mouseup, the click-hold context menu timer never gets reset.

The fix is to make double-clicks work correctly on mac. cc'ing some event folks
so maybe then can vend a clue.
