Hello,

I am running Xubuntu "Karmic", 9.10 on a laptop with a touchpad.

This problem still exists, as originally reported.

Even when I tried the 1200 double-click timing, I noticed that if I
managed to double-click just longer than the time it took to
(un)maximize the window, the mouse cursor briefly turned to a hand (as
reported).  Importantly, the time required to double-click to select a
word, for example, was longer than for the title bar (as reported).

I just had a thought: what if there's some code that's also looking out
for click+drag from the TOUCHPAD that's being used (poorly) in tandem
with detecting normal double clicks?

@Charlie Kravetz: Are you unable to reproduce on a normal desktop
machine?  Or do you have a laptop?  I have a laptop that has a built-in
touchpad that's always on, AFAIK.  Perhaps the title-bar click+drag
detection prempts (with a different threshold?) normal double-click
detection when running on a machine with a touchpad.  Something of this
sort might explain why the cursor turns to a hand when I double-click
too long for the title-bar, but _probably_ still within the normal
double-click speed.
