Oh, by the way, I want to make it clear I was reporting a bug regarding text selection across paragraphs, not pages. The non-working text selection across pages can be circumvented by various means, such as temporarily switching from portrait to landscape, changing the font size or font type, etc., so that you eventually get to see the whole passage you wish to highlight, on a single page.

The non-working text selection across paragraphs is a separate bug, and a lot worse, because it can't be circumvented by any means, as far as I know. There's only the awkward workaround described earlier: highlighing the two neighbouring passages separately, then attaching a manual note to the 2nd highlight to clarify that it's supposed to form a single unit with the previous highlight. That's surely a suboptimal solution unbecoming of the advanced iOS platform, to put it mildly.
