Comment #23 on issue 11614 by cmroddy: [Linux] Request: allow users to toggle whether single-click in location bar selects all http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=11614
after living with r23025 for a few weeks i have to agree. middle clicking on the new tab button to paste the primary selection into a new tab is very nice; i use this at least several times every day. but editing the URL is still confusing and difficult due to the automatic selection. it's the only text box in my desktop environment -- and worse, the only one in chromium -- whose contents are automatically selected on click. i always have to think, "what's going to happen when i click in this box? which app does what?" -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
