Comment(by garycmartin):

 Replying to [ticket:4220 erikos]:
 > Build: os11
 >
 > - insert cursor does not update position

 The insertion handle should either update position to match any cursor
 movement, or perhaps more easily, just disappear when the user starts
 typing/navigating with a keyboard/OSK/Screen-bezel-game-keys.

 > - insert handle is right handle

 Insert handle is 'cursor-handle-bottom', confirmed this is just an issue
 in Write, the rest of build 11 seems to use the correct insertion handle.

 > - there are no left/right handles shown for a selection

 If you switch away to a different view, and back again, the handles are
 correctly drawn, but any user interaction with the canvas will loose them
 again.

 Also noticed that:

 - Write still has self.abiword_canvas.set_word_selections set to true
 making tapping to deselect, or tapping to just place the cursor somewhere
 much more tricky (usually a selection is triggered)

 - Text selections can still be dragged via touch, making it very easy to
 rip-up and mess-up your document accidentally
