--- Comment #2 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed this topic in the design meeting. Provided the video showcases a
switch from the current double click behavior to go to the heading or the
object towards a single click we have concerns.

+ con: usually the default action (go-to) is done by double click
+ con: single click blocks context menu for not active object 
  + keep the context menu could be done also by special handling of right
button
+ con: breaks flow where you work in Headings-part, and select e.g. an image or
work in a table

+ pro: weird situation when a different item is selected as the active
position; wouldn't be an issue with single click
  + similar issue with styles & formatting where single click does not apply
the style (bug 94427)
  + rather a different topic IMO (Cor)
+ pro: in document selection is a single click and changes the Navigator 
  + with no clear need, let's not break the known behavior, present left and
right (Cor)

+ tend to weight the pro higher (Heiko)
+ the other way round for me; will likely hate it (Cor)


Jim, please comment if the assumption is wrong. Otherwise it's up to you to
balance the pro and cons, keeping the ticket open.
