renaming in content pane is a crap shoot in 4.6

I know there was a post on this already but I could not find it.
If I try to rename a node in the content pane and I double click it's a total crap shoot to if it will work, doesn't matter if I move the mouse, not move the mouse, click at the front of the name or the back it may or may not let me rename. if it's a nested node it's 49 times out of 50 its going to just expand the node's children. I tried to see if there was a bug report on this and if not I'll make one, but this is really messing with my ADD trying to get everything to be named correctly so I can streamline my surface editing.

Select ... pause ... select again.
Or right click and select "Rename" from the drop-down menu.
It also depends on your OS curser blink rate set by the STYLE your using if on Win7. Found that out the hard way.
thanks everyone.

Tried, tried again

I don't get an option to rename when I RMB on the name, I'm using darkside.
@ Jadrail
I am using Win7 and will try that
LOL! I have the opposite problem!
everytime I try to delete something it wants to rename it!
mostly I just pick delete now from edit instead!
