Bug Description

(tested on Mac OS X)

When double LMB clicking is set to open a chat session with a contact, this also should work when multiple contacts and/or groups are selected at the same time. Currently nothing happens!

Return fixed (not yet in cvs) but the double click is really hard
since the first click triggers a selection and then comes the 2-click
which then is acting on the selection, which was done in first click
even if there was a previous selection. Get it?

There is a current discussion on this:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/browse_thread/thread/51efae37ec24619b#
which I'm reading now.

The Finder (Mac) works exactly is the current Roster; making a multi
selection and then 2-click an unselected file just launches the
2-clicked one and selects it while deselecting the other. Not sure I
want to change this behaviour, see also comp.lang.tcl thread.

The Return binding is fixed but the 2-click works as it should. If you make two fast clicks, a 2-click, there is no way the first click knows that a second click comes. To handle this situation and "undoing" the first click isn't logical. The Apple Finder works exactly as the roster works now in this respect. I trust Apples design policy here and wont change it.
