hmmmm I see the problem now...I was thinking the issue is with the actual
"line". See, If you right click on the connection's 'line' you get the context
menu and can then choose to config/view config so I was thinking we should add
that 'quickSelect' open config/view config to the 'line' as well as the
'start', 'end', or 'middle' nodes. The problem with this is that we already
have an action for double click on the 'line' (that action is for adding a
bend). So maybe @moranr could chime in here....
Currently the way it is with this PR you can double click the the stats box
or an existing bend on a connection's 'line' to open the config dialog for the
connection. However, if you double click on the 'line' you will add a bend to
the connection rather than opening the connections' config dialog. Is this the
expected behavior? Or, do we want to change the current behavior such that when
you double click on a 'line' for a connection you will open the connection's
config dialog (just like double click everywhere else on a connection) and then
we can add an action to the context menu to 'Add Bend' to make it more explicit
to the user....thoughts?
