Bug Description
I'm not sure the specific purpose of the WorkingTree view, as at the moment it doesn't support right clicks, and only seems a launching point to open up a real explorer/nautilus or run Browse.
You can double click a file, but on my system, double-clicking a .py file *executes* it, when I want to edit it in my text editor. At least when I browse to the file using Explorer, I can "right-click/Edit in Vim".
Similarly, I can browse in Explorer, select multiple files, and edit them in a single Vim session. While the WT view does not support multiple selection.

It's very limited in scope right now. The intention is to reuse a smart widget being developed as part of QBzr. As of time of writing though, that widget isn't in a released version of the QBzr trunk.
The double-click action is explicitly "open". I feel that's the best default because it does the right thing for more types of files, e.g. when I what to browse the latest doc by double-clicking on doc/index.html in bzr.dev. To edit, single-click and select Edit.
