xforms chose (probably unwisely) to use the continuation model (actually
lazy model) to handle double the double click, meaning that
double click does nothing more than a little extra on top
of a single click. What this really means for the application
program is that double click is not appropriate to do things
that are very different from a single click.
I certainly agree that this model is less flexible than
distinctive single and double clicks. I think the reason
for the existence of a continuation model is to force
some type of consistency in click handlings. In reality
I am not sure this actually work. I will definitely
look into this. What probably will happen is a new option
to select how double click should be handled with the
current behavior being hte default.

there are some inconsistencies in group object handling. To
delete a group, use fl_delete_group() (there is NO reason
why fl_delete_object() would not work, but it doesn't,
it is just the way things currently are). will try to fix.

Actually no.

This particular behavior is intended although as everything else
in the library, I am open to suggestions. xforms' input object
detects when to call the object's callback by watching focus change,
and losing focus certainly indicates a focus change. I guess I should've
done a better job documenting this.
