Does anyone object?
(This applies to mouse-1 as well; I just added the follow-link behavior
to vc-dir, which was missing before.)

Not PCL-CVS's author. Mouse-clicks on various parts don't all have
a clear meaning (IIRC PCL-CVS interprets a mouse click on the status
word as toggle-the-mark, which is not necessarily such a hot idea), but
on the file name, I think it's pretty uncontroversial.
