> Doesn't this make Okular much less touch-friendly by default? Yes it does. For example, pinch-to-zoom and pinch-to-rotate is not really usable in text-selection mode. Given that choosing a tool is persistent across closing and opening Okular, I'd suggest to not apply this patch. People that want text selection as their default only have to switch to it once.
