When double clicking on a recent file, to open it, from the Home Screen, there is a very noticeable multi-second delay - where nothing changes or indicates that the load operation is happening.

Like, when I double click too slow to actually trigger the file open function, there's no way to know that my double click failed, without just waiting a few seconds to see if the Home Screen goes away and the file begins obviously loading, so I land up wasting extra time, just to realize I still need to double click to open my file.

It's only slightly annoying, but it is still annoying.

I put it as a feature request, because the easiest solution would be to add some kind of indicator over top of the Home Screen that confirms Illustrator is loading my document. Either that, or just have the Home Screen close immediately, before it even starts the load/open operation.

Sometimes it's a bit more annoying, because I launch a recent file from the Home Screen as I'm leaving my desk to go prepare a coffee, but then I come back and sit down only to find that I'm still on the Home Screen, because my double click wasn't fast enough.

Anyways, Illustrator is still awesome, and big thanks from me to the team behind it!

Cheers,
