Steps To Reproduce

From previous issue (note that ViewPagerAndroid does not seem to be required):

  1. Place a TextInput in ViewPagerAndroid
  2. Attempt to select text from TextInput
  3. Android logcat will display: "TextView does not support text selection. Selection cancelled."

Expected Results

Context menu should work.

Note: Perform a small change in the snack and let the app hot reload. Text selection ability should be lost.
