Comment #73 on issue 26140 by jlmjlm: Chrome Linux single click does not select all http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26140
It's the selection which holds whatever text is currently highlighted, and pasted with middle-mouse (and sometimes shift-insert). http://www.jwz.org/doc/x-cut-and-paste.html has the basics of PRIMARY vs. CLIPBOARD. Going to a URL selected in PRIMARY is a frequent action for some users (like myself), and is made very difficult if your web browser doesn't support middle-mouse to navigate to PRIMARY (like Chrome doesn't) and clobbers PRIMARY when the URL bar is clicked (which was the old behavior). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
