Steps to reproduce

  1. Reply to a text msg
  2. Try to select the text in the reply which is quoted in your reply
  3. Discover that almost all mouse interactions have been overridden in favour of click-to-jump-to-reply - for instance, selecting the text tries to drop & drag the div somehow rather than selecting text on it.

One alternative could be to make the quote markings down the left hand side hyperlink back to the original, but leave the rest of the message as normal interactable text.

Outcome

What did you expect?

You should be able to select & copy & paste text as normal in the timeline

What happened instead?

Instead, you experience strange block-drop-and-drag behaviour if you're trying to select text in a reply.
