I agree that the "slow double-click" is completely broken.  Also, I'm not
able to rename files that are on a NFS share (which I have full access
rights too), slow dbl-click doesn't work and in properties the name is
greyed out.

The MS Explorer interface is known by only a few hundred million users out
there.  Either having an option too, or just using some of Explorer
shortcut keys could aid new users quite a bit.
