@Cody Russell: when in 'single-click-to-activate' mode you can select
items either by dragging or control-clicking on them. Once selected, the
label could then activate rename when clicked. The only problem would be
that when in rename mode, clicking the icon doesn't reselect the icon it
activates
List and compact views seem to be the most problematic with click-to-
rename. Icon view is the default view, and is less accident prone, as
the icon is larger than the text (usually). Here's what I think at the
moment:
Compact view: probably too compact for click-to-rename.
Icon view and List vie
Would accidental renaming be much of a problem if only the label
activated it? Do people use the text label for selecting/moving as much
as the file icon? Clicking on the file icon could be set to end
renaming, which would help with quickly getting out of it...
I think that there is a parallel her
I agree with this being severe. It is awful trying to show your family a
slideshow of photos, and makes Ubuntu look bad. The upstream patch is
nearly there I think... the developers made some recent comments about
wanting to get this bug fixed.

Lack of preloading - very slow drawing of images
Not that it makes any difference, but the upstream bug is soon going to be 7

I'm not sure this qualifies as a Papercut bug, it would be a new feature...
although it would be a boon to functionality & usability if fixed.

Recent Documents needs 'open containing folder' option
https:
In the 'Places' menu it makes sense to be able to open the containing
folder of your recent documents. This is where a right-click context
menu would come in handy:
Open with "Text Editor"
Open With...
Open containing folder

Open with "Text Editor"

Why would you put the shortcut hint in the context menu when no other
items have it? It is already in the Edit menu (not everyone would go
looking for it though). I rarely use F2 because it is annoying on
Macbooks to press Fn+F2 - it breaks my workflow.
Here is why I think it is a papercut:
It is
This is a convention among Windows, OS X, KDE, etc. It would also be
easy to implement - if file is already selected when clicked on, enter
rename mode.

Cannot rename by clicking on a file

Fixed! Found solution on Ubuntu forums. Problem was that I used "expert"
installation mode & something about a root password being set & my account
couldn't use sudo properly.

I've got this exact same bug, and it is really infuriating! Having only just
installed Ubuntu, I can't setup anything!
I have a laptop - a dell inspiron 5160, native OS Windows XP.
