Bug Description

In the nautilus "Files" explorer window, when navigating with the back and forward buttons, clicking more than once registers as a double click and causes the window to minimize or maximize depending on its current state.

Of course you need to click twice in a row fast enough to register as a double click, but this is quite easy to do when you want to go back a few folders and start clicking the back button more than once.

This has been a long standing bug that I think is reported upstream, but I'm reporting it here so that people are aware of it.

This is on Trusty Tahr 14.04 64bit nightly build up to date as of right now, April 13th 5:40am EST.

Also affects me. On 14.04 Trusty Stable. Disabling double click to maximize through gnome-tweak-tool works for everything except nautilus, so that does not fix the problem.
