[Bug 1573620] Re: can't deselect text after selecting on nytimes.com
I have verified that with a custom UA string override for mobile.nytimes.com, the issue goes away.
I used an iphone UA string:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 5_0 like Mac OS X)
AppleWebKit/534.46 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Mobile/9A334
Safari/7534.48.3
But I’m guessing that an android one would do just fine, too.
Santosh, would you mind adding such an override to the browser? The
relevant file is https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/webbrowser-
app/trunk/view/head:/src/Ubuntu/Web/ua-overrides-mobile.js.

This occurs on nytimes.com, most other sites works but guessing others
will not work as well.

- go to nytimes.com and click on a news article
- long press and drag the handles to select some text
- tap on another area of the page to deselect the selected text
Expected results:
- selected text should become unselected

Note, this works correctly in Chrome for iOS
