Many years ago Apple introduced the click/release alternative way of choosing menu options. Old school Mac users usually still select submenus by holding the mouse button down and sliding right. The volume control is a good example; I do it with a single dragging click, others (especially switchers) would do it with two. The multiclick menu selection is useful for long scrolling menus, such as font lists. Click, release, type first letters, then click again.
