Gods have mercy on your soul if the selected text handle appeared near the screen edge and you need to adjust the selection. If you're using gesture navigation, 4 out of 5 times it will think you're trying to navigate away. Goodbye all the text!

This comment raised my blood pressure.

While I like the back gesture, it does interfere at the worst of times. Text selection and scrolling an ebook sideways for example.
