Nope, they actually thought about that. When you click on the url box the selection isn't replaced. So you can totally select an URL elsewhere, click on URL bar, press backspace to clear the bar, and middle-click-paste the selection.
On the other hand selecting the text in the URL bar in any other way (with mouse drag, triple click, or keyboard) will update the selection.
- philh 10y agoThis does mean that copying the whole URL is a pain - click to highlight the whole thing, then click a bunch more times until the whole thing is highlighted again. (Unless I'm mistaken, the right-click copy uses a different clipboard, so you can't use that.)
