An example of selecting text cursor on touch screen, this screenshot is taken from Free Download Manager 5.1
(deleted), image/png
Details 
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0
Build ID: 20160905130425

Steps to reproduce:

The current version of Firefox does not support using a selector to move the text cursor by touch, this would cause some unconveniences for users who use touch screen.
Google Chrome has already implemented this operation.
OS: Unspecified → Windows
We have enabled a touch-friendly text selection mechanism on Nightly 51. It probably won't ship until Firefox 52 but we're working on it.
