This makes sense!

I just installed a change so that a mouse-1 click only follows a link
if the window is already selected.

The tooltip will now say to use mouse-2 to follow a link in a
non-selected window and to use mouse-1 in a selected window.

BTW, I hate double-clicks...

It does.

With mouse-autoselect-window / mouse-follows-focus you don't need
to click in the first place, so I don't see a "need to help" here.
