Attached patch patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
When you edge-swipe to display the location bar, the text in the URL field should be selected by default. (This is based on an assumption that entering a new URL is more common than editing the current one, and should require fewer taps. For comparsion, the default behavior is to select all when you click the location bar in desktop and mobile Firefox.)

(Bug 776240 added code to do this on control-L; this patch moves that code so that it runs whenever the location bar appears.)
Depends on: 776240
Attached patch patch v2 (obsolete) — Splinter Review

Sorry for the churn; I'm still learning all the ways this code gets called. I'm also thinking we can make it easier to follow by continuing some of jwilde's refactoring work, but I want to get to know it a little better first.
