Is this not the expected behaviour on Linux? Unlike on other platforms, on Linux `browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll` is false, and `browser.urlbar.doubleClickSelectsAll` is true. Afaict, we didn't support the `doubleClickSelectsAll` in the searchbar before bug 1528614 landed. Now that we support that pref in the search box, the actual behaviour described in comment 0 is expected: all the text in the search bar is selected when the input is double clicked.
