I noticed that it is possible to highlight text in sms editor using the "mouse mode" gesture from web browser.



Sorry if someone already mentioned it.

Just like in browser... you go in to the message you want to copy from... swipe from edge and inwards in the lower left corner... just where the small arrow with the red bar over it is on tomaszf's picture. select the arrow and mark the text you need marked voilá

when you have your text in your write window you can also jump and jump select with ctrl + left/right arrows or ctrl+shift+ left/right arrows for quick and easy navigation. (just like the end and home button on your PC)
