OK, this might seem like a really odd question, but hear me out here.

What is the point of the edit rotor option when in a text box? Before you start explaining to me what it does, no no no... that's not what I'm asking. I know what it does!, but, why?

See, here's the thing... If you are on a text field, or honestly, for that mind, a text message, etc. if you double tap on the content, and leave your finger on the screen after the second tap, then after hearing the 3 little pass gesture through bleep tone, you then lift your finger, you'll hear another little popup sound. It's the same sound you get when I O S is trying to auto-correct. Now, if you flick right from that text box, text message, etc. etc. you'll see that right there you have menu options like select, select all, copy, paste, etc. And before anyone says, yeah, but tapping on them doesn't work, that's why you need the rotor... Oh, you wanna make a bet they don't work? I just did it over here, and they work perfectly! I can't figure out in the edit rotor setting nor in this method how to select a portion of text without selecting all. We had this discussion once on list, about pinching in and out to select, but no matter what I try, and apparently by far I'm not the only one who's had issues, I can't get it to work regardless what I do. Anyway, that's not the point. Point being, why make a rotor setting for this stuff, when doing it the non-voiceover way like normal... pardon the pun, sighted people would do, works perfectly? Isn't that kind of a waiste of source code? What 'em I missing here? Just seems a bit redundant. Is it more just a preference thing one may like doing it one way where another might like the other way, or is there actually a specific reason why to do one over the other?

Chris.
