Description William Jon McCann 2012-04-23 23:49:20 UTC
It is a bit odd that right click does nothing in the boxes overview.

We should probably be consistent with what Documents does.

There are really two options. One is to so the same as left click and the other is what boxes is doing and shortcut to the selection mode.

Lets handle right click the same way as Documents does: If there is a
box under the cursor, enter selection mode and select the box.

Note: Unlike Documents, we are not resetting selection when exiting
selection mode and this patch makes this bug even more annoying so that
should be the next thing to fix.

This test can be moved before  
if (path != null)
  button_press_item_path = path.to_string ();
and then the "if (path != null)" test can be removed.
