Empirically...
You can double click on an item's icon to do that.
Double-clicking on the name allows you to edit the name.
Single-clicking a line in the PB has no appreciable effect (other than
highlighting the line in the PB).

Double-clicking the mysterious lock icon with a "Show" tooltip also
seems to select the highlighted object.

Thanks -- that's a much more complete / thorough explanation than I managed to give. The Project Browser tries to fit a lot of features into a small amount of space and I'm not convinced that we've found the most efficient way to pack them.

In the core dev team we use the Project Browser a *lot* when working on the IDE. But we probably use it in a different way to the way many people developing apps with the IDE use it. We need to get more feedback about what it does well (so we don't mess with those parts) and clear feedback about specific things it does badly (so we can tweak them).

I'm not entirely sure what the "mysterious lock icon with a 'Show' tootip" is for... I haven't used it yet.
