To not confuse with window changing, I would suggest the following

1. double click for launching an app


why double click ? for me, i am using double click for a menu and a single
click for starting the app.
Because when sliding, you can have accidental clicks. I know it from
the hard way.
(I came up a nice usability workaround in paroli exactly for this
issue. It works good.)
yes i know this also from paroli. but it is solvable i think.

openbox has a tunable parameter for distinguish between slide and click.
in my oppinion, this is highly usable.

i personally find a single click more elegant and usable than double click.

the problem is not differentiating between slide and click - e and elementary
have this too. it's that if you drag horizontally for example, your actual
events often look something like:

+----+ +--+ +--+   +-----+ +    +-+    + +------+ + +   +   +---+
that's exact what i told you, what openbox has: they say: if movement < number_pixels then its click,
if movement >= pixels, its slide.

in your case, one could hava a hysteresis over the time: if a single click comes shortly after a slide,
it is part of slide.

if you measure now the time of the tap, you have all you need for differentiating between all this three events.

generally i think, its better to get the btn-release instead of btn-down. (from the view of windowmanager)

and you are right: it should be done in tslib or window manager.
