Build ID: 2000042809 & recent CVS pull Every time you change what web page is being displayed (whether by following a link, picking from the Go menu, etc), Mozilla will make the X selection whatever was previously in the URL bar (note: *not* the web page being displayed, but whatever was typed in the URL bar at the time the page being shown was changed). It will do this regardless of whether the URL bar has (Mozilla) focus at the time, and regardless if Mozilla itself previously owned the X selection. This is bad. Mucking with the X selection so blindly is very annoying; it is trivially easy to lose some selection work you've just done in another window, merely because you followed a link in Mozilla. (I expect that this will be worse on web pages that use REFRESH, since I suspect that every refresh interval will cause Mozilla to reassert the X selection; hit a web page that refreshes fast enough and you may not be able to selection *anything* in your X session for long.)
