This bug was originally reported in the Debian BTS: http://bugs.debian.org/304574 According to the Using the Status Notification Area section of the GNOME HIG 2.0: Double-click or Space key should perform the icon's default action. Normally this should open a window with relevant data ... However, when there is only one action on click, it doesn't make any sense to force a double-click.
Already fixed in the draft version a while back: http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/draft_hig_new/desktop-notification-area.html#notification-icon-interaction
