            Bug ID: 468276
           Summary: [feature request] Add toggle to enable or disable
                    libinput double click prevention
    Classification: Applications
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcm_mouse
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: sartamo@e.email
  Target Milestone: ---

Situation:

libinput has a double click prevention: If the mouse debounces and clicks
happen too fast after each other, they are not registered. Normally, this is a
wanted behavior because people don't want to accidentally double click when the
mouse is debouncing.

Request: 

There is a way to toggle this behavior by using the command line and editing
/etc/libinput/local-overrides.quirks (described in
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1199820/how-to-disable-mouse-debouncing-in-libinput).
Add this as a graphical toggle in the mouse settings.

Why this is important: 

There are multiple scenarios where you need double clicks from debounces to be
registered (take "godbridging" in minecraft as an example).  With KDE's vision
to give the user the choice, there should be a graphical setting in the mouse
configuration module to configure this behavior: The reason to why clicks don't
happen as fast is not obvious to newcomers and the solution can take a lot of
research to be discovered. But they might look into the graphical mouse
settings to find a solution.
