However, it doesn't do this if you click on two different icons inside
the double-click time. I think this is a good behaviour. It makes it
easier to double click on an icon if you're not that good with the
mouse, and won't cause any problems.

What I see on unselection is that the two clicks are interpreted
separately, so you first unselect and then select. While on selection a
double click is just interpreted as one operation (which selects). I'm
not sure which of these behaviours is right, but we should probably have
the same on selection/unselection.
