On a PC you get that behavior by simply clicking again, but accurate double clicks are somewhat hard on touchpads, so I get why that'd be annoying. This may just be laptop/touchpad users complaining, and mouse users not comprehending what the big deal is.

Double-click selects the word under the cursor (at least for me on Ubuntu). To get the cursor at the position, it's click-wait-click.
