Would accidental renaming be much of a problem if only the label
activated it? Do people use the text label for selecting/moving as much
as the file icon? Clicking on the file icon could be set to end
renaming, which would help with quickly getting out of it...

I think that there is a parallel here with the single/double-click-to-
open behaviour setting. Preferences -> Behaviour would be a good place
for a click-selected-to-rename setting.

I'm at a loss as to what needs doing in the code, after looking through
the source for a while all I could get it to do was rename when clicking
a selected icon - not quite right. I can't find a way to check if only
the label was clicked...
