Reference Screenshot

Currently in the details view, in order to select a file, I need to click in
the blue area in the screenshot (the highlighted area). However, in most (all
other?) file managers that I've used such as in macOS, Windows, Nautilus, Nemo,
Pantheon, in this details/row view, you can click anywhere in the entire ROW
rather than exactly on the file name in order to select the item.

For lack of better terminology, I want it to act like a block-level element and
not an inline element.

Since this behavior might not be wanted by others, perhaps this should be a
toggle-able option in the Details View settings.
