   +1 - double-click is very unintuitive to me. I would've never guessed that.
   
   So, I frequently want to select and copy text from the Servers page, e.g. hosts and IPs to put in a terminal or URL bar. I assume that's the problem double-click was trying to solve.
   
   As Steve said, detect hold-downs. Could we make the UI event onmouseup instead of down, and detect if text was selected, and if so not trigger the click/navigate? That seems ideal to me, if it's possible?
   
   If not, we could change the row to not click anything, and add a column of buttons on the right or left, to click to navigate to each server's page.
   
   I'd +1 either of those, over either double-click or the current situation of trying to copy text being extremely painful.
