Is there a way to not auto-generate the click event logic when a control is double-clicked in the Windows Forms designer?

Occasionally I will double-click a control on accident when moving them around in the designer. This creates a click event method in the associated class file along with the designer file. This can be undone, but ctrl+z seems to go back a step or two too far in the designer and is a minor nuisance. I don't have much need for the double-click shortcut and would prefer it removed entirely. Any advice is appreciated.

Probably not worth the effort, but you could just inherit from the control you are using and set the DefaultEvent attribute to nothing. For example:

[DefaultEvent("")]
public class ButtonEx : Button {

}

Now when you double-click on a ButtonEx control on the form in the designer, nothing happens.
