Hi,

I'm wondering what the purpose(s) of dblclick_time are as used in program/js/app.js:this.msglist_select

It seems clear that it will prevent the message preview from loading while the user is about to hit their second click to open the full message screen.  There is some nice economy there.  However, if they are just single clicking with the intent to see the preview it adds 0.51 seconds before the preview is shown.

Are there other reasons for waiting dblclick_time + 10 after a single click to show the preview?  If not, I'd side with the faster preview time over the economy of not loading the preview before loading the whole message.

Thanks,

Ziba
