Issue 2458: [New change screen] Can't post an inline comment by double-clicking the line
Status:  WontFix

Reported by nemow...@gmail.com, Feb 7, 2014
Affected Version: 2.8.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a diff with the new change screen/change view, e.g. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/111977/2/resources/ext.popups.core.js,cm
2. Double click any line

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I. Expected: the text area to enter an inline comment opens, as in the old side-by-side or unified diff.
II. Observed: the line in question, and the number of the following line, are selected.

This is by design.  To enter a comment on the whole line, click the line number in the margin.  To enter a comment on a range of text, highlight it and press 'c'.

This makes the inline comment functionality even harder to discover than it used to be. I suggest reconsidering the design :/
