Hi there

I'm a Linux user and I really dislike the new default browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll=true settings. However, "about:config" enables me to override it and go back to the way it should be 

Anyway, each time a new version of Weave comes out, I find browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll set back to "true" again. Unpacking the xpi I can see it in the .js files.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll to false
2. upgrade/install weave
3. browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll reset to "true"
4. cry



Do you actually need that setting? If you remove it from weave, wouldn't that mean it will remain whatever Firefox has it set to? Which is what the user will want?

Thanks

Jason

We sync the pref...

extensions.weave.prefs.sync.browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll == true means to sync that pref.  if you have another machine where the pref is set differently, that may be overriding this machine's prefs.  You can set the pref I named to false to not sync this particular pref.

We don't sync this anymore.
