So the random behaviour between users is in fact not-so-random. The
question is why the search field works this way...
Because all text fields behave that way; try it in any app on your
system. If you select a text field in such a way that you aren't
placing the cursor (e.g., tabbing or clicking on the control but
outside the editor area) you focus the text field, which causes its
contents to be selected. Clicking in the editor area does the same,
but then inserts the cursor (which undoes the selection).
However, it's much more likely that the different behaviors people
are seeing is based on whether they are running 1.0 or nightlies,
since clicking the edge of text fields isn't very common.
