--- Comment #1 from Felix Ernst <felixer...@kde.org> ---
This is in my opinion intentional.
>When KDE is configured to use a single click, the file is only opened after
>releasing the mouse button.
Drag and drop requires that a file or folder isn't activated directly on the
first click, so this is the only thing that makes sense.
>When I configure KDE such that files are opened on double click,
>a file is opened before I release the mouse button after the second click,
>even when I am still holding it down.
For the second click in a double-click there is no good reason to not activate
immediately when pressing. The only reason would be that we assume that a user
clicked the second time by accident and tries to not open the folder by moving
the mouse while keeping the mouse button pressed down. However, this is
somewhat unlikely, and there is also not much harm done by activating an item.
Therefore it is better to act immediately when a user presses the second time.
It makes Dolphin usage smoother and faster overall.
I'll mark this bug report as resolved intentional for the above reason. If you
think that I ignored an important aspect on why activating on release would be
better, please let me know.
