185209 - location bar caret movement should behave differently with control+left/right

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 98546

(Core :: Layout, enhancement)

Description

[Eric Liang]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

When you use the key combination control+left/right to jump through text in a
text editor the caret moves to the next white space (usually), this is the same
for the location bar. I would rather have the caret jumping to the next '.' or
'/' or '?' or '$' or '=' in the URL (maybe some other 'special' characters too).
This would make correct URL typo's significantly quicker I think.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. hit CTRL+L (Accel?+L)
2. hit 'end'
3. hit CTRL+left

Actual Results:  
cursor moves to start of line/URL.

Expected Results:  
(preferred results)
cursor moves to previous '.' '/' '=' '?' or other common URL seperator character
