    Description

      Qt Quick: TextInput, TextEdit
      Qt Quick Controls 1: TextField, TextArea
      Qt Quick Controls 2: TextField, TextArea

      None of these allow dragging of selected text (press and drag on selected text starts a new selection). Moreover, that does not seem possible to use MouseArea to support drag and drop, because if you overlap text input item with MouseArea, MouseArea will prevent text input item from accepting mouse events.
