A feature.

I recall many but intermittent posts about this 1.x/MC behaviour last 
year. Basically, more people wanted what is now the 2.x behaviour 
rather than the old one, so it was changed. I expect that most of those 
wanting the change came straight to Rev without prior MC experience (I 
am one) and expected either HC-like behaviour or else what was 
considered natural; that double-clicking a development file opened the 
development environment.

Recently, in relation to learning Rev, there have been posts about the 
likelihood that a Rev user might have prior experience of HC. Many 
users are on Lin/Win environments rather than Mac now. I expect this 
will open up discussion on the extent to which Rev should continue to 
adhere to HC standards, and I for one (despite being a Mac user coming 
from HC) think Rev is strong enough to be cutting more of those ties 
where it makes developmental sense.
