The KDE maintainer should realize, though, that (at least to me), the treeview problem is more of an issue than double-click on the desktop. But as you said, this appears to be an actual KDE bug (at least in terms of usability), so if this gets fixed for 3.1 it won't be as much of an issue.
And, the hand pointer (and busy cursor, too) should probably be disabled, too, if you are following Windows standards. Obviously, the hand cursor only makes sense in single-click mode. Does the icon in the taskbar (and busy cursor) seem to spin way too much to anyone else? It's supposed to spin as the app is starting, but it always continues to spin for several minutes after the app has started (this also may be a KDE bug, I don't know).
At least the hourglass model is less intrusive and doesn't affect the spinning in the taskbar (in the Windows model).
