G'day all,

Just a pet EVE-peeve of mine. There is no option to set a 'default' or 'primary' action in various menus that execute on double click. For instance, in the Market orders window, double clicking brings up the info window on the item you clicked on, which seems an odd choice of primary behaviour when modifying market orders. It would be great to have the option to change it to something else (my personal choice would be to bring up "Modify Order" on double click, but "View Market Details" could be just as useful, etc).

Important to note this is not a complaint specific to the Market, but that there are many actions docked and undocked in EVE which take place upon double click and have no context or method to change them, like "Move in that direction" or "Open that can". Something of a trifling quibble but when you have 100's of market orders to modify or a hundred wrecks to sift through the option to change the default behaviour would be pleasant.

Perhaps when right clicking to bring up the action menu on a ship/item/window/etc, another right click on one of the list options could set that option as the 'default' option to take place upon double click?
