	Double-click to open the source reduces productivity and usability.

	Please also note, that single-click currently has no conceptional meaning
	anymore because you cannot assume that the highlighted element is the
	selection (see 1G2P732: ITPJUI:WINNT - Hierarchy view not updated on selection change).
	This is	very confusing and should be changed in order the have a understandable
	product from a user's perspective.

	If - for whatever reasons - this remains as it is, then we should at least offer
	the option to choose the action which opens the source.
