What is the use of the Android Native Field widget?

[trevix]

To my dismal, I discovered that the "Android Native Field" widget does not support selection/copy/paste.
I was trying to use it on Android, since the MobileControlCreate, when the device is horizontal, opens a full screen/keyboard window, with I dislike: it does not behave as in iOS.

I may be missing something but what is the use of this widget since, in Android, it behave almost exactly as a normal LC input field?
Thanks
