I noticed that enabling finger scrolling in list view by setProperty("FingerScrollable", True) has a little issue. When I want to select an item, there is a little delay between my tap on the item and the appearance of item as selected. (I mean highlighting). Comparing to the native contact list, you'll find that it responds immediately. Also disabling the FingerScrollable property will remove this delay too.

I understand that this delay might be a feature not an issue, that prevents unintentionally selecting an item while scrolling with finger. But the fact that tapping an item so the next screen shows up before I got a response or a verification that I selected an item it's the correct item that I wanted, bothers me. I hope there is a ways to remove this delay.

I guess the idea of the delay was to remove the visually messy thing of an item being highlighted when all the user wants to do is scroll. However, I agree that if the user does tap and release an item, without scrolling, that there should be some visual feedback of highlighting the item as soon as possible, so that the user doesn't try to tap again, or isn't sure whether they tapped the correct item.
