This isn't actually a duplicate of the bug 31809 it's been linked to.  THAT bug 
(and its duplicate, 33069) is that you can't tab into the address bar at all. 
THIS bug is that shifting focus to the address bar, by whatever means 
(apparently tabbing DOES work on Windows NT; it does not on Macs) doesn't cause 
the URL in the address bar to be select-all'd/highlighted for replacement. This 
bug is probably a duplicate of or at least related to bug 28583.

See also 29086.

PS: I don't understand why this bug is listed as resolved. It isn't, unless it's 
only be fixed on

Okay: 
  bug #33069 is a dup of bug #31809
  bug #36278 is a dup of bug #28583
However, I'm not going to make a change: they still resolve
as duplicates.
