Usability: Double-click when adding cross-references

This is a minor usability issue: could it be possible to implement double-click functionality in the Cross reference window? To be specific, I want to be able to add a cross reference by double-clicking the target instead of having to click OK or press Enter. I have to add a couple dozen cross references to a DocBook file and it would be much faster to double click them.

Hello,
We already have this improvement in the Cross Reference dialog for DITA topics, but not in the one for DocBook documents, which is a little different. In a DITA XML topic a double click in the Cross Reference dialog just adds the link element in the XML file without closing the dialog, which is not modal, so it allows switching to other source XML file behind the dialog or just moving the cursor location in the same XML file.
We will implement this in a future version for DocBook documents too.
Thank you for the suggestion,
Sorin
