I'm sure it would be possible... however, it would most likely require changes in several gtk+ widgets, and in many GNOME applications both to ensure all functions were still available in single-click mode, and to work around any other side-effects it might cause. So I'd imagine it's not a trivial piece of work. That said, now is probably as good a time as any to get it on the GNOME 3.x agenda. You might get more useful feedback on the feasibility of the work involved by raising it directly with the gtk developers over on gtk-devel-l...@gnome.org.
