NO Question Here! Use the preferences value...I think you get
it through some twisted set of getPrefsMumble calls.
Once the prefs double click interval is read, your description
_is_ practically an example of doing double-clicks.
It's really important to respect preferences settings. New users
usually like the double-click time to be fairly large, and it
tends to shrink with mouse-experience...
