I am referring to panning, not text selection.

It seems like perhaps panning works similarly to other apps but there is another gesture active that pans by one page when there is a hold on the page and that that gesture keeps firing? If I drag my finger down the page and hold it, I can watch the book pan through 20 pages without lifting my finger. That is if I hold my finger totally still. If I wiggle it side to side after dragging down, the document continues to scroll indefinitely.

I see this with the default settings for a new install. I can't find any gesture in the settings that would pan by a page during a hold. Am I missing something?
