Comment 88 for bug 48671

Ham, one way to mitigate accidental activation of click-to-rename is to require two consecutive clicks on the label, or if that is still problematic, require the first click to be made on the icon and the second click to be made on the label. The latter would avoid double-clicks activating renaming.

Some say, if we implement this as it is in Windows it will not work well; others say, if we implement it a different way, new users will have trouble with the difference. This is missing the point -- users want click-to-rename because they find it more convenient and usable than the dialog-driven approach, not merely because they are used to the behavior on Windows.
