The incredible tragedy of Scott Jenson’s long and correct article about editing text on mobile is the conclusion where he describes why the great demo he has, clearly running, can’t ship. And the tragedy is, whenever he says important he means “important to Apple or Google”, and by ship, he means  “ship as the OS default”. As though there are no other options.

Open source? Anything that people could use or build on? Not a question, not a considered possibility.
