Title:
  There is no way to copy-paste from text of a web page

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/public_html$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 15.04
  Release:        15.04
  phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/public_html$ apt-cache policy webbrowser-app

  What I expected to happen:
    Long tapping in the text of a web page should make 2 cursor widget pop up, with which I can select a region to be copy-pasted (just as happens in the terminal app, or in the URL bar for that matter)

  What happened instead:
    Long tapping does nothing. There seems to be no other way to select text from the body of a web page either.
