There is a great focus mode in Sailfish, where the text zooms in if you swipe a bit to the side in a text-field, allowing you to easily position the cursor exactly where you want it. Unfortunately, it is only used in some of the text fields, but not all. In particular it is not used in the browser, making it very hard to position the cursor in the browser text fields. Please implement this for all text-fields!

For those of you that haven't discovered the function, or find it hard to use, check out this suggestion that aims to make the text focus mode easier to discover and use.

yes, integrate thisvfeature into the browser content would be a big improvement

@00prometheus, @kayoux, this feture request is already part of this question: https://together.jolla.com/question/15795/text-editing-in-browser-is-lacking-features/ I wonder if it makes sense to keep this as a separate sub-question - in that case we probably ought to have them for the other missing browser-writing features. I'm guessing that people who already voted for the other question would feel they already voted for this one too, so maybe it would make sense to mark this one as duplicate and ask people to carry their votes over?
