Re: [libreoffice-design] Rework of the "Templates and documents" dialogue

I guess that's helpful for Tablet LibO... For desktop LibO the
behaviour seems extremely inconsistent.
Almost all desktop file managers have an option that allows opening
files/folders with a single click, but I've yet to see one where this
was deemed so useful to be enabled by default (I guess KDE 3 Konqueror
used to have it enabled by default, but that is the only app I
remember – in Dolphin, this choice was reverted, too).

Sounds good...
