The problem with double-click in KDE is that it makes things double-click that shouldn't be.
For example, turning on double-click for desktop icons makes any treeview (such as the one in the kcontrol panel) require double-clicks on each leaf. Surely this is not good.
In Windows, it may be double-click for icons, but it is also single-click for the treeviews. How will it help newbies to make double-clicking icons the default, while treeviews need double-clicks instead of single? Unless this has been patched too, it's just making things more difficult.
Actually, in KDE you must also press <ENTER> on a leaf, I don't think Windows makes you do this either. All in all, there is more to the Windows UI than a simple double-click -- it has better keyboard support throughout.
