Moved from the Native App Shell issue adobe/brackets-app#120. (already reviewed)

The Windows common dialog launched by our call to SHBrowseForFolder() does not support dbl-click to select. The windows class is sealed and does not even provide a way for us to extend the base functionality to trap the dbl-click. Consequently, to get this functionality, we'd have to re-implement this feature using a different common file dialog.

I noticed in the 'brackets-app' discussion (adobe/brackets-app#120) that NJ suggested trying the newer Windows dialogs to see if they've solved this request. To this end, I've submitted a 'brackets-shell' PR adobe/brackets-shell#247 to test using the newer Windows' Open File dialog in pick folders mode. The new dialog drops in quite nicely and gives a more full-featured dialog with a UI that's more consistent with the Mac implementation.

Unfortunately, it still doesn't support dbl-clicking to select and confirm the dialog. :-(

This issue is unassigned, so marking "Needs Review".

Closing - it looks like Win native dialogs no longer support this gesture anyway.
