What Jamie wrote
Jenson presents a thoughtful assessment of how bad detailed editing of text is on mobile devices, along with a recommended improvement. I like this article cause it hits on something we all struggle with but have sort of accepted, to his point of it being invisible. At one point iOS offered a 2-finger drag on the keyboard to emulate arrow keys. That isn't there anymore but I really miss it. Personally, I almost never attempt to do this kind of detailed text editing on my mobile device because it is maddening.
