Details

As the summary says. On the Mac a single click should move the insertion point
to where you clicked, a double click should select the word where the insertion
point is, and a triple click should select the whole text in the field.

This is so incredibly annoying and un-Mac like. I am constantly replacing the
whole text in the field by accident when all I wanted to do was insert some
characters. Safari and Camino do it the right way, so why can't the Fire fox?

Once more, with *feeling* (and enough disk space for Bugzilla to finish the
operation).
