Well,  you're free  to have  it as  you want,  the more  so  since the
sources are available  to let you change it, but  note that that's the
way  it's  done  under  NeXTSTEP.  A single  clic  on  an  application
miniwindow would just orderFront: it. A click-and-drag would allow you
to move it anywhere you want on the desktop.

To answer  to your question, I  think it's a matter  of windowmaker. I
guess  it's  the  window  manager  who gets  these  events  first  and
translates/transfers them to the  application. It could easily convert
a single-click event to an application activate event.
