Double-click to clear-and-edit text fields

Whenever I make a new train station, I replace the default backer name with a descriptive one. Currently, this requires backspacing over the existing name. For numeric fields in logistic requests and the circuit network, double-clicking on the text box clears the field and gives it cursor focus.

It'd be nice if this worked for text fields as well.

TL;DR
Add "Clear text" button into Search and Text fields.
What ?
Add a small "Clear text" button to the search field and possibly other text fields (object names, etc.).
Just a small cross on the right side of the text field.
The button appears if the field is non-empty.
The example is in the image below:

Why ?
It's very convenient, you don't have to manually erase all unneeded text.

Right click does this.
