I'd have to say that breaking consistency with all the other NSSearchFields out there would probably not be a good thing. Users are used to the behaviour already.

Hi. I have a suggestion for a minor feature change in Camino. Does anyone else like this idea?

Problem: When I want to do a Google search, there is usually old search text in the search field at the top. I find that I usually move the mouse to the field, click once, start typing, then realize that my input has been inserted in the middle of the stale text so I have to clear the field and start over.

Current workaround: Either triple-click the text in the search field before typing, or do shift-cmd-F (which is difficult to remember).

Suggestion: Clicking in the search text field should select all of the text so that typing the first character will erase the text to begin the new search.

Cons: Other browsers don't work this way.

Comments?
