Can you turn off cut 'n' paste?

I know, I know. We waited so long for CnP, why would anyone want to turn it off?



Well, when I hold my iPad when surfing the web or flicking a page, my fingers rest on the screen a bit too long and BAM! The page gets hilighted for CnP. I need to tap elsewhere on the screen and wait a moment until it clears. This is very annoying.



How many of you have this problem?



Is there a way to disable cut and paste until I need it?

    I'll agree that this is sometimes a problem when browsing. I'm on an iPhone when I have my troubles. And I agree it is a tad annoying not in the least because I almost never use cut and paste when surfing. I use it more when I am writing and such...

    I don't know if I would prefer and off/on setting or if it would just take a higher threshold to initiate when browsing.
