Details

Tabbing into text fields does not select existing text in the field. This means that to tab to a text field and overwrite the existing value, it's necessary to backspace it all first. Text fields in 4.* will auto select existing text when they recieve focus. Test case: In Preferences, under Advanced/Proxies, select the FTP proxy host name, enter some text and tab to the port number.
Thanks, bduff. This is bug #25458 in the specific case, but really bug #28583 in the more general case of 'tab to text field should select contents'. Marking dup of bug #28583. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 28583 ***
