Hi.

I use the single click policy, since I feel more comfortable with it. However,
selecting an item inside a window with list view enabled seems quite uneasy to
me. I honestly think the way list view handles single click policy should
change, maybe clicking on the filename to open it and clicking on any empty
space to select the file.

I'll show you an example:

I honestly think this would be for the benefit of Nautilus usability.

Thanks for your time.
