I'm currently running Chrome 35.0.1916.153 on Ubuntu 14.04 with XFCE and clicking once in the address bar highlights everything all. Don't know why mine is acting different than yours, maybe they changed that since you last tried it.

I last tried it years ago, so it's possible they changed it since then. When I read that response on their forum, I completely gave up on Chrome and haven't touched it since then. I don't care if "it's not the Linux way" [1], it's my way and who is Google to tell me otherwise?

Sorry, I'll end my rant now.

I am on XFCE using the same version as you and the highlighting works.
