Really?  Which design is that?

And regardless of whether or not double click is meant to select URLs,
it's a literal fact that it did in fact (largely) select URLs for many
years.

You're obviously welcome to your opinion, but it's a little strange to
end 77 lines and 705 words with the claim that there is "nothing to
see here" and a request to "move on".

That's your opinion; in my opinion this is a regression in Ubuntu.

Title:
  double clicking on a URL drops the protocol from the URL

Status in Gnome Virtual Terminal Emulator:
  Confirmed
Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 15.10 beta from 15.04, when I double click on a
  URL, I lose most of the protocol, e.g. if I type
  'http://www.ubuntu.com/' into a terminal and double click, what gets
  selected (and entered into the copy buffer) is '//www.ubuntu.com'
