It looks like this will clear all selections on the page, but I think you only want to clear selections of input elements (i.e., things that grab focus).  For example, if I select the copyright text on google.com, then select text in the URL bar, the text should still be selected.

My guess is this works in Safari because when you focus the URL bar, it causes the previous selection to be blurred.  Maybe we need to somehow tell the renderer process that we've moved focus?
