There were several complains that clicking on a zip file in the left pane (structure input pane) feeds all other
compare panes (see bug 13730). There are cases where this is expensive (for example a large zip file that has
to be read from a repository). To avoid those situations the left pane now honors single or double click mode as
set in Preferences->Workbench. So if this preference is set to double click the user has to double click on a file
in the left pane to actually feed all other compare panes.

The patch wizard no longer opens a Compare Editor but applies the
patch directly to the workspace. This will be the default.
In the future the old behavior of opening the Compare Editor will be
an additional option when finishing the wizard.
Patch wizard has a 'Reverse' option for applying a "reversed" patch.
This option can be used to 'undo' a patch.
