[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Double-click to edit a page

Hi devs, I'd like to propose adding a new feature for XWiki: double-click to edit a page. *PROS* - It makes page edition real fast and easy from anywhere on the page - 45 wikis have it: http://www.wikimatrix.org/search.php?sid=395 *CONS* - "Users may find this feature irritating, particularly if they are in the habit of double-clicking to select a word (normal browser behaviour)" (from http://www.wikimatrix.org/wiki/feature:Double-Click%20Edit ) - Potential JS side effects? *IMPLEMENTATION IDEAS* - Make the feature configurable through a setting on the user profile: - The same way an user can choose between simple & advanced mode, he could activate/deactivate double-click to edit - It could be added pretty easily to xwiki.js: - $(’xwikimaincontainer’).observe("dblclick", function() {window.location="$doc.getURL(’edit’)"}) *EXAMPLE* You can see a test implementation on this page (double-click anywhere on the page to edit it): http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Grid/Test If the user setting part isn't too hard to do, it would be worth keeping the feature in mind as a XWiki UX improvement.
