So why not stay consistent with all other edit boxes? From an UI point
of view it will probably confuse users if an edit box in firefox behaves
differently from one in another application. I don't really see that a
single aditional click (takes me maybe quarter second, I don't know
about new users, but it's not difficult or something) makes an operation
unefficient or less productive. If you want you are free to click the
icon in the URL bar, that is a one click operation, too.
I'd be good if you could elaborate why you think this is so much more
producitve.
