Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.
That it didn't select everything was only the default on Linux, to accomodate the folks using the middle-click clipboard (primary selection).
But yeah, I don't remember, if there was a good reason why they removed it. I think, they replaced the URL bar implementation and just have this feature in the new one. So, maybe they'd accept a PR?
That rather understates the insult that the current behaviour is to Linux users. There was not a good reason for removing the option to have it work properly, which was available for many years. The reason given was entirely nonsensical. But no, they will not accept a PR. It was a contentious issue and opinions were hardened in the flame wars that followed.
My understanding was, addons (the new versions we use now) were not allowed to clear the address bar. At least that was the excuse they kept pushing, so they removed the setting.
