I think the issue is Nautilus! Pretty much everything is single click except the things controlled by Nautilus which is the desk top and the file browser. At least that is the default setting. It is possible to configure nautilus to use a single click and then I'm pretty sure everything is a single click (there may be some exceptions such as navigating in a 'open file' dialogue box). I think it is set this way so that new/inexperienced users don't accidentally open things up from the desk top etc by random clicking, ironically enough!
