Comment(by deryni):

 I see no reason to have the same behavior across operating systems for no
 other reason that consistency there if the operating system standards
 suggest otherwise. That being said, given that we probably should do
 something on single left click, and likely can't reasonably do something
 both on single and double left click (and even if we could it would be
 confusing), and that Vista seems to suggest we do something 'useful' on
 it, I'm not against making this change in theory.

 I will say I think our policy of either focusing a conversation window or
 opening/displaying the buddy list depending on the current state of things
 is a bad one, and one I wish we didn't have.
