If you go to any webpage, then atempt to click somewhere in the location bar to
edit the url, all the text in the location bar is selected instead of the curser
being placed where you want to edit.  For example, say you accidentl went to
http://www.mozzilla.org and clicked after one of the z's to delete it, the whole
url would be selected and you would have to click after the z again.  This is
very anoying and counter-intuitive behavior.

1. Go to any website.
2. When site is loaded, click somwhere in location bar.

Actual Results:  
Entire text in location bar was selected.

Expected Results:  
Cursor should have been placed at location clicked.
