Selecting text on mobile

Not critical but somewhat important, at least from a marketing perspective.

The other day I was out of the office and detected a problem in one of my sites. I had to use my phone to fix it and found out that on my phone I can't select text from a textarea that's powered by CKE. Can't select, means can't copy/paste, and if what you need is to do is moving a bunch of text around you're screwed.

Of course CKE is now PW, but being the standard rich text editor for PW, I'd say we should look into making it more usable on phones.

Could you give some more info about the OS and device where the problem occurs?

I tested in iOS and Android and could select, copy and paste okay (a bit awkward as expected, but doable). Technique was the same on both platforms: double-tap on some text in the CKEditor window to start the selection, then drag the selection handles around the content you want to select.
