Bug Description

Ctrl-a does not select the url when the cursor is placed in the url bar. As I am
not sitting in front of my machine at home, I cannot test this further. I will
post more this weekend when I test the rest of the system.

Even if this is just something i need to add to keyboard shortcuts, it is also a
good default, IMHO, as it is a fairly commonly used short-cut

It's possible that you have emacs keybindings enabled.
