Caret repositioning is not accurate

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Type any text;

  2. Tap/Click in between two characters.

Observed Results:
The caret is placed on the previous character.

Expected Results:
The caret is placed on the desired location.

Screenshots/Videos attached: Yes

Notes: When the text is bold, the letters get wider but the clicking range doesn't adapt, making the caret's position much more inaccurate depending on how many bold letters there are.

Platform should be set to 'Multiple', as this bug isn't exclusive to Windows

I had a situation when writing in a book where I could not find a valid location to click that would place the caret after the last character to append new text. Android issue MCPE-179036 further complicates the situation, as arrow key inputs do not appear to be captured by the text input context.
