GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 112686
Clicking on line number column selects whole line

My favourite W*****s text editor has the handy facility where if you click on the line number column it selects the whole line corresponding to where you clicked. You can also drag to select a block of lines. I'm not sure if this is possible with the Gnome text edit widget, but it is very handy.
I agree with this RFE, but I think it belongs to GtkSourceView. (sorry for the spam if I'm wrong)
