           Summary: Double-clicking a file *deselects* it after opening

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Double-clicking (to open a file) *DESELECTS* the file in question. This is a
regression from earlier versions of Dolphin/Plasma.

This makes it difficult to know which file you were currently working with in
Dolphin's window. You have to tap LEFT ARROW or RIGHT ARROW to select an
adjacent file, which will once again "select" an icon for you to resume your
workflow.

What makes this even more strange is that while the file's icon is deselected,
hitting the ENTER key will open up the file again. (It's as if you clicked
"empty space", when in reality you did not.)


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to a folder with many photos (or any files)
2. Double-click to view/open the file
3. Close the file
4. BUG: The file's icon had already been "deselected" and is no longer
highlighted

If you notice, this happens *immediately* upon the second mouse click when you
double-click.

HINT: It acts *AS IF* you clicked empty space when you didn't.


EXPECTED RESULT
It should not deselect the file's icon when you double-click it.
