iOS's selection handles overlap the arrow button we add, so it can't be clicked on.

Something very similar happens on my Android phone. However, if I blur the editor and refocus it, the first cursor I get upon focusing doesn't have a selection handle, but if I then move the cursor, a selection handle appears.

Regarding Android, I've raised a similar issue at Bug 51270.

The mobile version of VisualEditor doesn't do text over-lays to avoid issues like this bug. Closing as INVALID now that work there is progressing.
