Screen-recording is attached.

@cyril.auburtin: Could you please re-test the same on a clean profile [chrome://settings -> Add Person] and let us know your observations, which would help us in triaging it further.

I tried with a new profile, with anonymous too, all result in: http://recordit.co/4nzpeXlOj6 with 53.0.2756.0 dev-m (64-bit)

a selection is made on the word on long touch, but no handles appear like in your video
Kindly, update your Chrome Canary to Latest Version - 53.0.2760.0 and let us know your observations.

Thank you for reporting this!

Looks like this is controlled by switches::kEnableLongpressDragSelection. It would be very hard to change this on the fly and wire it up to emulation. I will lower the priority due to the large work/impact ratio.
