Touch based platforms like Maemo need a way to disable text selection and image dragging at run time, since it interferes heavily with kinetic scrolling.
(dynamically at run time, since it'd be nice to switch back to text selection mode - see e.g. the Maemo microb browser)

Simon, should this block the 2.1 planned API meta-bug?

I will help Thiago with implementing this feature.
Tor Arne Vestbø
Do we need API for this?

returning FALSE from EditorClientXXX::shouldChangeSelectedRange would prevent mouse based text selection from happening.
