[Bug 1439149] [NEW] Magnification to position the cursor correctly in a texfield

 

Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu touch it is quite hard to position the cursor right in the
middle of a word. Android uses a magnification to be able to better
select the right position. A function like this would also be good to
have on Ubuntu Touch.

Here is an image how it looks on another mobile OS:
