The command-option-double click doesn't do any of these things that you say. It closes the window and then opens a completely different window.

Um, not quite.

Action Tool bar present Tool bar collapsed
---------------------------------------------------
Dbl-click Displays folder Opens new window
in same window

Opt-dbl- Closes window & Closes window &
click opens new window opens new window

Cmd-dbl- Opens new window Opens new window
click

I just tested it under Mac OS X 10.3.3. A command-option-double click does close the old window and open a new one. It does this no matter if the toolbar is showing or not.

Yes, other options do other things. Also, he didn't need the command part of the command-option-double click. Just doing option-double click does the same as doing command-option-double click. However, the behavior of command-option-double click is to close the old window and open a new one.
