Bug Description

Double-clicking on a hierarchical sheet it does not open it anymore

I don't know if this is the new intended behaviour, so I report it as a bug.

To reproduce the behaviour:
- Create a new project (or open an existing one)
- add a hierarchical sheet
- double click it. Instead of opening the child schematic it just selects the box.

If this behaviour is intended... Double clicking was a very quick way to navigate complex tree-organized schematics, so... I miss that feature.

Cheers,
Dino.

Worse, on OSX when you do double-click you get locked in the EE_POINT_EDITOR's event loop.

Also I get a weird behaviour using copy-paste on a single component... may be it is related to this bug (or a dirty build? ...I'm just trying a new make clean on the last revision to figure it out)
