Is it different than Emacs normally deals with double clicks?

BTW (my real reason for posting to this thread :-) I like
mouse-1-follow-link generally (so don't want to disable it), but there
are some cases where it is annoying.

For instance, in a Gnus *Group* buffer, clicking with mouse-1 enters
the group.  Sometimes this is OK, but often I want to merely position
point there so I can use one of the alternate entry commands (e.g.,
`=' or `C-u RET').  A similar thing happens in Gnus summary buffers.

I'm not sure what the thing to do here is, whether Gnus is
intentionally enabling mouse-1-follows-link, whether it's inadvertant,
or what.

If it's being enabled automagically by Emacs, perhaps that mechanism
needs adjustment (or Gnus needs to tweak it).  I guess the reasons why
m1fl is inappropriate in these places are (1) there are many commands
one can use (and are commonly uesd) on each "link", and (2) they don't
look like links anyway.

Thanks,

-Miles
