Where does double-click not provide feedback? Double-clicking on a launcher normally displays a Launching whatever entry in the window list and shows the busy cursor. I do think that the double-click should be gotten rid of, but I don't think that feedback is necessarily the problem.

I think there are 3 distinct themes, in part overlapping. 1. copy operation does not provide feedback. Copy is an standard feature provided by gtk/gnome and this is "broken". There are external tools that provide advanced clipboard functions, but this does not fix what I condider a gtk/gnome defect. 2. double click does not provide feedback. Double click is a standard feature and is "broken". 3. rethink the whole desktop usability to remove the double click operation. I think each of there should be considered on its' own. About implementation issues there are some "problems" that are easy to fix and others that are not. If we identify something like a "problem" several strategies to fix it can be considered. But I think this is something that should be done after a "pure" usability evaluation.
