 Since our URL bar displays the window name instead of the URL, there is no
 way to position the cursor at a desired spot when clicking into the field.
 As such, it makes sense to automatically select the URL with a single
 click, since this is another common action that does works regardless of
 where the cursor would have been placed.

 That way, if I want a new top level domain, I can simply start typing it
 from scratch, deleting the previous URL.  If I want to modify the URL,
 pressing the right key will jump me to the end of the URL with one
 keystroke, where I'm most likely to want to change it.

 Of course, we should add a preference which keeps the URL in view at all
 times for those who want it, and when in that mode we should keep the
 selection as is: single click to insert cursor, double -lick for word,
 triple-click for all.
