This is inconsistent. All of the functions in the Edit menu should be page-level, not focus level. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Put the cursor in the address bar. 2. Click Edit > Select All. [1] 1. Put the cursor in the address bar. 2. Click Edit > Find in the page. 3. Search for something in the URL bar. [2] Actual Results: [1] The URL is selected. [2] The page and not the URL is searched. Expected Results: [1] The page is selected or [2] The URL is searched.
