    Description

      To be able to implement sensible text selection on mobile platforms, all editable controls should offer delegates for text selection handles:

      • TextField
      • TextArea
      • SpinBox
      • ComboBox

      FWIW, Android has three different selection handles: "left"/"right" for managing selection and "middle" for moving the cursor when there's no selection.
