Description
May be a duplicate of #25 and #280, although they talk about different "actions" rather than left-click always opening the application and right-click always opening the context menu.
In #280 (comment) @3v1n0 says
Some apps may support being activated on double-click (mostly Qt ones), but for those using libappindicator, this has always been denied by design (some old documentation is here).
That seems to be the case: I can double-left-click open a Qt application but I can't double-left-click open for example Steam.
I wanna propose the idea of disabling the ability to double-left-click open (which in my case, doesn't even work all the time; sometimes I have to double-click multiple times in a row) and sending a "double-left-click" event when you single-left-click instead (or however way you wanna code it). So that apps that play along can be opened (i.e. unhide from the task bar / bring into foreground) by a single left-click.
Additionally for the apps that don't play along, find a way to open them, like is possible by alternatives like Tray Icons: Reloaded. Once again, @3v1n0 has already addressed this:
It may be "hacked" for some cases, but really it's not something we want.
That's why I split it into 2 requests: If that's still the stance, then the first suggestions can be evaluated separately.
