--- Comment #6 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
The point of single click to activate the text box object vs. double click to
enter the edit mode makes sense. However, Impress/Draw has the option General >
Allow quick editing which detects whether the cursor is over text and goes
directly into edit mode if checked (see also bug 106330).

Now I wonder if we can add this behavior to Writer/Calc. Eike, what do you
think?

The question is frequently asked, see bug 107688 "Accessing the textbox of a
selected shape is a bit counter-intuitive and inconsistent", but also somewhat
controversial, see bug 154409 for "A single click on a shape/image with frame
should select the frame, instead of the image".
