[X4U] Leopard peculularity regarding command-clicking in title bar of Finder window

[David R. Boag, DDS]

Yes. You are remembering correctly, and yes, it is a new feature. I  
like the choice, although I'd personally rather it be the other way  
around: CMD-click to do what it used to do and CNTL-click to open in a  
new window, but I assume they did it this way to make people aware of  
the new option, because it has not been publicized to any significant  
degree at all.

Choice is always good.
