Angular ui-grid double click row to open pop-up for editing a row

VERSION:

I am using Angular ui-grid version 3.0.0-RC.18 (http://ui-grid.info/).

PROBLEM

I want to implement a double-click event in an ui-grid table. In particular, I want to open a modal pop-up when double-clicking at a row.

I tried to use a ng-dblclick directive inside the rowTemplate definition as is suggested at https://github.com/angular-ui/ng-grid/issues/2228 , but 'dblclick' event is never fired.

Nevertheless, I found a solution, but using a directive created by my own. Can I do it better, without creating a directive?

Any comment would be appreciated.

CODE:

My code at the Controller is as follows:

$scope.onDblClick = function(row) {
    var url = '//google.com';
    $window.open(url, "_blank", "height=600,width=800,toolbar=no,location=no,menubar=no,titlebar=no");
}

// Define the New Conflicts Simulation GRID behavior
$scope.myGridOptions = {
    showFooter: false,
    enableSorting: true,
    multiSelect: false,
    enableFiltering: true,     
    enableRowSelection: true, 
    enableSelectAll: false,
    enableRowHeaderSelection: false,  
    enableGridMenu: true,
    noUnselect: true,
    onRegisterApi: function (gridApi){
        $scope.gridApi = gridApi;
    },
    rowTemplate: "<div ng-dblclick=\"onDblClick(row)\" ng-repeat=\"(colRenderIndex, col) in colContainer.renderedColumns track by col.colDef.name\" class=\"ui-grid-cell\" ng-class=\"{ 'ui-grid-row-header-cell': col.isRowHeader }\" ui-grid-cell dbl-click-row></div>"            

}

(Where dbl-click-row indicates I am using the dblClickRow directive)

My code at the View is as follows:

<div id="myGrid" ui-grid="myGridOptions" ui-grid-selection ui-grid-resize-columns class="gridTable" ></div>

My code at the Directive is as follows:

var angularStartDirectives = angular.module('angularStart.directives', []);     

angularStartDirectives.directive('dblClickRow', ['$compile', '$parse',  function($compile, $parse) {
  return {
    priority : -190, // run after default uiGridCell directive
    restrict : 'A',
    scope : false,

    compile: function($element, attr) {

        // Get the function at ng-dblclick for ui-grid
        var fn = $parse(attr['ngDblclick'], /* interceptorFn */ null, /* expensiveChecks */ true);

        return function ngEventHandler(scope, element) {

            element.on('dblclick', function(event) {

              var callback = function() {

                if ($scope.gridApi.grid.selection.lastSelectedRow)
                {
                    fn($scope, {$event:event, row: $scope.gridApi.grid.selection.lastSelectedRow.entity });
                }
              };

              $scope.$apply(callback);

            }
        )};

    }

    };
} ]);
