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?

Indeed, the current "default" behavior is more of a hindrance than a
help. Let us remember that the whole "Google" search function is
extensible; thanks to CamiTools, I have about 20 search engines
listed in there, so I do actually use it a fair amount.
Click once and have all text selected would be the default behavior I
would (vastly) prefer.
But I wonder about the whole issue of Cocoa widgets and editable text fields...
