Is this change going into the main stream of 3.0 and/or 3.1?

The change makes SUCH a difference to how the system responds.  I thought
Squeak had turned my 800MHz machine into a sloth, but this small change
makes it much better.

  Acts on clicks immediately instead of waiting for the double-click timeout
to expire.

  Makes the system generally feel much more responsive and fixes an
interaction with threading on the MacOS-X VM.

  A side effect is that receivers of doubleClick events will now get a
singleClick first, so they have to deal with this situation.

  Ad-hoc testing with the TrashcanMorph (one of the very few
double-clickable morphs) showed no ill effects.
