Now try to move the left selection marker so that the selection will include the opening quotation mark. It can't be done here at all. The left selection marker fails to react to my finger movement... but then it suddenly does, jerking over several letters to the left, so that it ends up selecting more than I had intended to select, and I need to start selecting all over again.

It's always been like this for me in Bluefire Reader, which is why I've been unable to use it as my e-book reader.
I can test Bluefire on an iPad 3 with iOS 6 on it. No access to an iPad 3 with iOS 5.
