Doubleclick player in chat to target him?

One of the fixes in the June 15 update was: "Enabled clicking names in whisper text."

I had assumed that this means you can doubleclick a name in the chat window to make it your current target, so you can add invite him to your party or trade with him. But it doesn't work. Doubleclick just makes you whisper to him.

Is there an easy way to copy a name from chat to your target?

you could just type it into the box.....

Highlight a name in your whisper window,
hit 'Ctrl + c' (shortcut for copy),
click on group add field to move the cursor there and then hit
'Ctrl + v' (short for paste)

Yes this is very annoying and tedious. It would be SO NICE if you could click their names to automatically place it in the Party window so you can then just click Invite to invite them.

If I need smartass advice I'll talk to myself.
Doh! Well ... that's better than nothing, but still not as easy as I was hoping for.

In the party window you can RMB-click a name to get a little pop-up menu with several options what to do with the selected name. We need the same for the chat window. Options: Trade, Invite, Ignore, Target, ...
