Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0
Build ID: 20150513174244
Steps to reproduce:
1. Type Ctrl-T to open a new tab (blank URL).
2. Type "allo" to search for some URL. At this point, I get:
allocine.fr/
where "cine.fr/" is in reverse video (as if it were selected by the user).
3. Click with the middle button in some application that accepts the PRIMARY selection (e.g. xterm).
Actual results:
I sometimes get: cine.fr/ instead of the old PRIMARY selection.
Also, if something was selected in an xterm (corresponding to the PRIMARY selection), when I type the URL, this is sometimes deselected from the xterm, showing that the PRIMARY selection was stolen by Firefox.
Expected results:
Typing a URL is not a selection process. Thus the PRIMARY selection should not be stolen.
