Public bug reported:
Back in Ubuntu 13.04, if you selected (by painting or triple-clicking) a
URL in the omnibox, and then pasted it somewhere (with the middle mouse
button), the pasted version would automatically have http:// prepended
to the URL, even though Chromium does not display http:// in the
omnibox. This was very useful.
Unfortunately, in Ubuntu 14.04, Chromium no longer magically prepends
http:// to pasted URLS.
More precisely, Chromium DOES prepend the http:// when you Cut and
Paste, but DOES NOT when you paint or triple click, followed by a middle
click.
