Agreed, that is probably a dealbreaker if you can't copy and paste things from a wiki, especially commands or code snippets in an enterprise environment ;) Plus, definitely needs to be downloadable and installable internally for this to gain any traction!

I confirm text selection is working fine for me now - in Chrome.

I was fighting against making the same comment, since it's kind of a weird thing that I do when viewing a web page is to repeatedly select the block of text I'm reading.
Whenever people are looking over my shoulder, they always seem annoyed by my doing it, so I figure I'm unique in that regard, but I'm glad somebody pointed it out.

It's not weird... lots of people do it. I do it to keep track of where I'm reading...
There was actually a HN Poll about it a little while ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4839436
I was a bit frustrated by not being able to select text when in "view" mode (text selection worked fine in markdown mode - using latest version of Chrome on a mac). Is this a side effect of the iOS shortcuts?
