Comment #83 on issue 26140 by kpprom: Chrome Linux single click does not  
select all
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26140

I thought I would add that this does not break convention on Linux, IMO,  
since the
omnibar is not a normal text field.  If it truly were a text field, or an  
address
bar, then one could argue that single clicking to edit makes more sense.   
However,
since Google had the genius to make it a search box, an address bar and  
more - hence
the omnibox - it does not need to fit the same behavior.  The usage should  
fit the
application, not some general rule or "everyone else does it" excuse.   
While you're
at it you could take the tabs out of the title bar, put in a proper menu  
and make the
status bar permanent waste space since that is the way other Linux browsers  
work.

Also ctrl-L is a non option for us netbook users with no right-ctrl.  And  
those of us
using Chrome on multiple platforms should not have a major UI change like  
this.
