Text selection to copy
currently:
user can copy whole message on message selection on long press.
there is no way to copy selected part of the message, including text, links, numbers...
enhancement:
Selection mode so user can select and copy only particular, selected part of the message.
if long press is taken under url or a number, user should be able to copy it as well.

Tap the bubble, tap COPY, move the selectors to copy the text you want, press COPY again.

This is so much not user friendly that Textra developers should think about upgrading the UX...

textra shuts down when trying to do a copy as described. It works ok on one phone but not another. Any thoughts?
