Firesite CMS progress

I am slowly working on Firesite CMS even though there are thousands of things going on at the moment. It feels like a thousand things anyway. I am about to move to a new apartment. Somehow it seems me and my girlfriend is moving at least once a year. Always a hassle. Anyways, at the moment I am concentrating on the file management replacement.
I am creating a more file manager lookalike interface which is actually very promising. It seems everything you’d want to do is doable using javascript and html only. Below you can see a small screenshot of the unfinished file browser.

The one thing I still haven’t decided upon is whether or not to use double click to open a folder or file. Using double click to open folders and files would enable the user to click on a folder to select it and then click the delete button. Very intuitive. To double click an item in the web gui environment to open it however – is not very intuitive.
If I stick to single click to open folders it is more in line with the rest of the application. But then I don’t know how to solve selecting folders for deletion in a simple way.
