"Live folder" only if right-click... Or Alt!

I have a couple of my Favorite Folders setup as "Live Folders," with the fly-out submenu. However, I find that most of the time I only want to open the favorite folder itself, not a subfolder. I know the top-item of the subfolder menu is a link for the parent folder... So that's good.
My feature idea: A checkbox in the "Live Folder Options" for "only on right mouse click." When checkbox = True, then a normal left click on the QAP Favorite Folder simply opens it as a regular favorite. However a right-click opens the Live submenu.
(After I made the screenshot, it occurred to me that there are several "keyboard-heavy" users.... So the checkbox should probably be "Only if right-click -or- Alt+Enter.")
Just an idea... Thanks for considering!

Hi Steve,
This has been suggested before but, unfortunately, right-clicking a menu item is not possible in QAP menus. This is a AHK platform/Windows limitation.

Hmmm... That's a shame.
How about a "double left click?"
First click opens the menu, second click launches the parent folder (basically ignoring the popup submenu).
I'm guessing this is also not possible... Probably the submenu "steals" the focus from the main menu item(?) -

> First click opens the menu
It is not a "first click" that open the Live Folder submenu, it is "hovering" the menu that opens is. "double left click" cannot exist.
Unfortunately, I think this is now what it "can" be. -
