Invoke Drupal plugins on doubleclick [#490414]

From fckeditor.module:

// Open the image_assis dialog on double click.
FCKImageAssistProcessor.OnDoubleClick = function( span ) {
  if ( span.tagName == 'IMG' && span._fckimgassist_fckimgassist ) {
    FCKCommands.GetCommand( 'Img_Assist' ).Execute() ;
  }
}

That, I find cool UX. Can we achieve this, too? If so, how?

Looks like all we'd have to do is to have Drupal plugins return their (own) plugin name instead of true? Or similar?

If the editor supports onDoubleClick, we just invoke all of our plugins' .isNode() methods, break if one returns true, check whether that one implements a dialog (edit method?), and invoke that if so.

Sounds simple enough. Maybe we could even add our own double click handler for those editors normally not supporting it. I won't be back on my dev machine until after the weekend so I can't test this on myself yet.
