Make the item selection setting a tri-state

[zadjii-msft]

observation: I have single click enabled (which feels much more natural to me and should be the default IMO, the double click always turns me off as I'm only used to using that in explor.exe).. but I was just clicking around in the WinGet extension and installed a bunch of things by accident because I wanted to look at the detailed information on the right and was using my mouse ).

not sure what the solution for this should be

That's a little bit of the reason why Jordi and I thought the default should be double click. Stuff like the Mastodon one too - it felt like the UX was scrolling, clicking on the thing you wanted to view, but we didn't always want to immediately "drill in" to the clicked on thing.

But I still like, fail to double click things most of the time. Maybe this is more of a "Extension Design Recommendations" kind of thing - like, don't put something like "install" on the primary command.

I already had to move "uninstall" into the context menu on winget for the same reason

Yeah.. that makes sense. I think whenever the default list view (sans details pane) a single click makes sense to invoke the command. but when the details view is there my mind goes "oh I wanna see the detailed information there".. and once I see that, I might want to invoke the primair action.

but it's interesting, Windows Search works the same way as we have now

maybe we can make the setting a tri-state:

• Default: single click selects if there are details, or activates if there isn't
• Single click always activates
• Single click always selects
