The behavior as it is now is the preferred one. What you suggest is that
a doubleclick behaves completely different depending on the status of a
file. That's *not* good. It would make a doubleclick inconistent.

It's much better to leave it as it is: a doubleclick will *always* start
the diff viewer.
