Difficult to select and copy text #1190

Expected behaviour

When editing a text document (markdown) I expect to be able to see my cursor and to have the usual iOS ability to select words, expand the selection etc.

Actual behaviour

The cursor is invisible (it seems to be white on white background) so it is hard to see where I am typing. When selecting a word I can't tell which word is selected and I can't see the handles easily to expand the selection. This makes copy pasting very difficult. Selecting a link is next to impossible as only parts of the link are selected when pressing. The 'Add link' popup is shown whenever I'm trying to make a selection which also makes things harder.

Steps to reproduce

Create a text (markdown) document in the iOS app. Write a sentence then try to select some text in that sentence. Also paste in a link and then try to select and copy that link.

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

It would be good to make editing in iOS feel more natural and useful. Also even things like quickly sharing something from desktop to mobile, like a link in a text doc, should be easy to do.
