STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin.
2. Press-and-hold on an item using a touchscreen

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin shows a context menu but does not enter selection mode.


These behaviors aren't quite right. Click-and-hold should generally do nothing
when using a pointing device, while press-and-hold using a touch device should
enter Selection Mode rather than showing the context menu; the
context-sensitive Selection Mode toolbar is more or less a touch-friendly
replacement for the context menu. It's especially important that press-and-hold
enter selection mode on touch since the user likely won't have access to the
spacebar keyboard shortcut.
