Because thats whats happening when the user does it. There are two
presses+releases and Qt's code itself (IIRC in QWidget::event) creates the
double-click event depending on how much time has gone between the first
and the second click.

Actually Qt exposes this "setting" (or has its own, not sure) via
QApplication::doubleClickInterval(), so its no problem to post the events
in the right time-distance.
