Simple solution to that is to know in which direction one is going to highlight before one starts, and that I would have thought one would be well aware of before even starting to select and highlight.

One just taps the page, which clears the overlay, and then extends the existing highlight - but there again, I am not sure why one would want to lift ones finger in the first place (for myself I can never recall having done so).

I guess it depends on ones dexterity and at least a minimal level of forethought, but I am a fat fingered, aged and forgetful male, and have never had a problem with this myself.
