The "full 2D" commit (5a0d9e0) added the tip aim but never removed the
y-band candidate filter from pdfAdjustHandleMove — vertical handle
drags still snapped to the boundary rect's own line, so up/down
movement was impossible (the user's original report). With the filter
gone: the end handle drags down a line and the extent extends with
clean text — verified with real touch on the emulator (down one line,
release, PUT applied: 6 per-line rects).
