[TxMt] double-click closes Find window

Why does double-click on search results inside the Find window cause the
Find window to close without even doing anything?

It happens to me a dozen or more times each day and is one of those small
annoyances -- I have to slow myself down whenever I click in Find window.

Specifically the problem is:
1. focus is on a text window
2. click in the (inactive) Find window to make it active
3. click again (in same location, quickly) to select a search result
4. RESULT: the Find window closes without opening the result I clicked on!
Argh!!!

Proposal:

Only do the "close Find window on double-click" shortcut if the Find window
was active on the first click.

--or--

Add a preference item to turn off the "close Find window on double-click"
shortcut entirely.

Thanks for a great product.
