Ah, just realised that the bug refers to any component. Actually the problem is, that this is due to the way a MouseArea works. All components you listed here are derived from AbstractButton, and that component also has pressAndHold() signal. Now, that signal is a forwarded signal from the MouseArea the component uses. And here comes the problem: MouseArea does NOT emit clicked event if the pressAndHold signal is connected/implemented. And we have that. So a release after a long press actually causes a pressAndHold to be emitted, and clicked signal to be suppressed. This is a behaviour we cannot really change.

Long-tap on any control: for example, a button, switch, checkbox, or page stack item. 2. Let go. What happens: Nothing. What should happen: Unless the control has a specific action for long- tapping, it should activate just as if you did a short tap. Fixing this would be one way of fixing bug 1289329.
