 Yeah, there is some truth, though I think we should just do what is best
 for our users. Not sure what they expect exactly if they would use that
 option or not.

 Btw, for the particular case of the address bar in Browse, I would
 encourage to do what Firefox is doing: having a menu with the options
 copy/paste/undo when doing a right click. Though I would do such a change
 only in master.
