I disagree with this “feature”, or at very least with its
implementation.  It means that when I accidentally click on the corner
of the screen and realize that I didn’t want to open/close the menu, I
have to wait half a second doing nothing before trying again.  Even if I
repeatedly click on the menu waiting for it to close/open again, it
*never will*, as long as each click was within half a second of the
previous one!  That just makes the desktop feel unresponsive.  (See bug
777492.)

This applies not just to clicks, but also to the keyboard shortcuts
(Super and Alt+F2), which makes even less sense.

Frankly, is it really too much to ask the user to realize that when they
try double-clicking on the menu button and see the menu briefly open and
immediately close, they should try single-clicking instead?

The double-click suppression makes sense for launchers, but not for the
main menu which is supposed to act as a toggle.
