contentEditable not selectable with Angular Material on Android

[barryvdh]

On Android, I can't select a contentEditable piece of text.

Without Angular material: http://codepen.io/barryvdh/pen/PPrJLr
With Angular Material: http://codepen.io/barryvdh/pen/RWzLvE

It works on desktop. Probably related to gestures/fastclick (maybe similar to ionic-team/ionic-framework#421 ?)

FYI, I'm using https://github.com/thijsw/angular-medium-editor which used contentEditable

This is still a valid issue, which can cause problems on touch devices with several 3d party libraries.

Seeing that there is a pull request, is there any chance that this could be fixed in 1.1.0? It is a serious issue for any application that uses contentEditable, ergo almost any wysiwig editor. In my experience, those editors DO NOT WORK ON MOBILE DEVICES.
