How to move context menu after text selection?

When using Firefox for Windows 10 on a tablet, if you want to select a sentence instead of a word then then context menu always appears at the exact place where you can extend the selection. So you can't. Say you want to select and copy 3 words you long-tap the first word, but when you try to make the selection cover the next 2 words the selector is UNDER the context menu so you can't extend the selection.

Not sure whether this is a bug or not but it's terrible for mobile users. Is there a way to always have 1 cm distance between the selected word and the menu so you can pull the selector to the right or so?

Tnx...
