1553624 - Pref value should be selected after pressing edit

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Preferences, enhancement, P5)

Description

[Jan Henning [:JanH]]

With the old UI, the pref value in the edit dialogue started out as selected, so if you wanted to overwrite it, you could simply start typing directly.
With the new UI on the other hand, I now always have to manually delete the old value first.
