Comment 7 for bug 1343081

I'll repeat it again:

The problem occours when marking the text in the URL bar and pasting it in somewhere else with middle-click.

To test it, just mark an http url in the URL bar and check the output of 'xsel -o'. It will show exactly what was
previously marked in the text field, which the URL fragment w/o the "http://" prefix.

Anyways, I still dont see any valid reason why the the "http://" prefix is stripped off in the first place.
This is the actual root bug.
