[Googlebar] Googlebar: feedback from Erik O.

It's one of those hidden settings.  If you load up about:config, there is a boolean preference named "browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll" which when set to false, makes it so that one click does not select the whole url. (I discovered that if you hold shift and click at the very end of the url, it then selects the whole url; giving you the power to choose the behavior with one action.)  I discovered this in Mozilla after I had just switched over to Firefox, where it didn't work.  I still had the preference set, so when I upgraded to 0.9, it retained that setting and took effect immediately.  Naturally, this only applies to the Firefox/Mozilla url bar, not to Googlebar.

I agree. Keystroke and other interface behavior preference can be a very personal thing, so it is always best to have a choice.  I noticed the F12 hotkey setting and can use that for now.

Again, Great Work! :)
