Bug Description

The behaviour of the drawer panel applet needs 2 clicks at the moment to start items in it. This is one click too much.

In earlier versions you could click on the drawer panel icon, move the mouse over the item you wanna start and release the mouse button. This was much faster and more a Unix/Linux feeling when working.

The current behaviour of having to click the drawer icon, release the mouse button, wait until the drawer opens and click again on an item to start it reminds me too much on another operating system...
