Ok. So am I correct to assume that the cut and paste will be expanded on an app by app basis? In otherwords cut and paste does not depend on the Jolla phone updates but the developer of the app implementing that feature. The way it is done on the android app is nice in that a long press gives you two brackets to surround the text you want to copy or cut. Also I still think transfering text between android and Jolla apps would be good. Just need to create tmp file with r/w access for both. Andoroid does have access to some files under Nemo. For example I have the Android app Poweramp playing videos stored in Nemo/Videos.

No, I don't think it will require apps to be changed. It's a system wide change. The two standouts however might be the browser which is a wrapper on gecko and Android.

copy & paste between native and android apps worked from the first version, it has the same limitation like between native apps: you need a text field to copy.

not having non-editable selectable text boxes looks like current limitation of QtQuick, so they might have to implement it in Silica

I'm sure I'm about to have a "Doh!" moment but how do you do it? Thanks!
