longPointerPress() not called for (most?) components - codenameone

Question

I noticed that longPointerPress is not called for Label derivates.
Therefore I created some code to investigate further when longPointerPress() is called and was surprised that:
Label derivates do receive pointer events - however no longPointerPress
Button derivates do receive pointer events and longPointerPress just works
TextField derivates do receive pointer events unless editing, then they eat all the pointer events.
What I'd like to achieve is to be able to have various components in a Container and still be able to get notified for longPointerPress events under all circumstances.
How can I achieve this?
Here is the code - do a long tap on all the components and watch the console:
public class FormLongPointerPress extends Form {
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
private interface With<T> {
void act(T ... aTs);
}
public FormLongPointerPress() {
super("FormLongPointerPress");
setScrollableY(true);
setLayout(BoxLayout.y());
With<Component> with = (aComponents) -> {
Container container = FlowLayout.encloseCenter(aComponents);
container.addPointerPressedListener((aActionEvent) -> Log.p("container.pointerPressed(" + aActionEvent.getX() + ", " + aActionEvent.getY() + ")"));
container.addPointerReleasedListener((aActionEvent) -> Log.p("container.pointerReleased(" + aActionEvent.getX() + ", " + aActionEvent.getY() + ")"));
container.addLongPressListener((aActionEvent) -> Log.p("container.longPress(" + aActionEvent.getX() + ", " + aActionEvent.getY() + ")"));
for (Component component: aComponents) {
component.addPointerPressedListener((aActionEvent) -> Log.p("component.pointerPressed(" + aActionEvent.getX() + ", " + aActionEvent.getY() + ")"));
component.addPointerReleasedListener((aActionEvent) -> Log.p("component.pointerReleased(" + aActionEvent.getX() + ", " + aActionEvent.getY() + ")"));
component.addLongPressListener((aActionEvent) -> Log.p("component.longPress(" + aActionEvent.getX() + ", " + aActionEvent.getY() + ")"));
}
getContentPane().add(container);
};
with.act();
with.act(new Label("A Label"));
with.act(new Button("A Button"));
with.act(new TextField("A TextField"));
}
}
