Description
The Problem: I continue to use ⌘+L when I want to select the current URL/location (instead of Vimium's ge to activate the Vomnibar).
Proposed Solution: When activating the Vominbar with ge, select the text in it, like Chrome does when you activate the Omnibar with ⌘+L.

Research direction
Start by tracing the ge keybinding to the Vomnibar activation code and compare its behavior with Chrome's URL selection. Confirm the expected selection behavior in the Vomnibar, then verify that activating it with ge selects the current text without changing other activation paths.
