If I have an explorer node selected, and I move focus to the editor, then (single) click back on the selected node in explorer, it interprets this as Rename. I suggest it should not, *if* window focus changes as a result of the click The problem is that the user needs to click once in the explorer window just to return focus to it. The click should not be "overloaded" to add additional rename behavior. Although they can think "I'll click on background whitespace, because I know that that'll return focus to the node, without renaming it", that isnt exactly intuitive. Im fairly experienced with Netbeans but I make this mistake often.
Passing to explorer guys...
