Both Microsoft Windows and Apple MacOS (including X, I guess) allow
you to keep the button pressed a little longer to rename, instead of
select, a file.

So the "keep it pressed longer" action is a known one.

Keeping the button pressed longer to edit the text where the link is
seems natural.  I like this idea.
