I admit, I did not qualify my question with much backround.

Yes, precisely.  Double-tap long-press in my lingo is down-up-dooown.
Triple is down-up-down-up-dooown.  I used similar actions for a
different app almost a year and a half ago (WildSpectra) but they
weren't on an EditText, they were just on a custom view, so the
context menu issue never came up before.

Regarding the actual solution, unless I have mistaken what I am
seeing, it does look like my solution works: override
showContextMenu().

Cheers!
