I would love to see this added to Ubuntu.  In my opinion, it IS very
intuitive to click on some selected text to rename that text.  We do
that all the time, in documents, programs and on websites.  Why should
it be any different to click on the text of an icon, after it is already
selected, to rename it?

I use Windows at work and Ubuntu at home.  I find myself clicking on an
icon to rename it constantly throughout the day.  I don't usually give a
doc a name immediately after it is created and must rename the file at
some point after it is created.  I also don't keep the default file name
for most of the items that I download and must rename them afterwards.
It is quick and easy to click on an icon and then click on the name and
edit it.  I don't find that I "accidentally" enter edit mode during
normal Windows use like has been suggested, so I don't agree that this
would cause accidental renaming of files.
