by the way, you use the shelf a lot.....how come you not know about
this?
do u have a different trigger(action) than me ? ( i guess shelf(show
contents) which is ugly bcoz it opens QS command window and shows
shelf in result)
When I use the graphical window I use the mouse (well trackpad).
When I use the Shelf (Show Contents) trigger I do it all by keyboard
(and of course return works just fine there). And selecting things is
much faster than arrowing down since you can type and use the matching
algorithm.

Return is supposed to behave like double-click? Not that that
wouldn't make sense,
strange question? return is almost always supposed to do what double-
clicking does
Not sure I agree with that. In the finder with an icon selected, it
doesn't open the file but selects the name so you can do a rename
(there isn't even a menu choice for that).
and whats the point in a shelf trigger, i would rather click on an
icon on my desktop after clicking F11 if i have to use the mouse.
Well the shelf is easy to bring up when the screen is full of windows,
though the Show Desktop function of Expose makes the desktop
accessible too.
Again, I agree that return should do a double-click on the shelf, I'm
just not sure it ever did.
