Safari in ios8 is scrolling screen when fixed elements get focus

Question

In IOS8 Safari there is a new bug with position fixed.

If you focus a textarea that is in a fixed panel, safari will scroll you to the bottom of the page.

Haven't dealt with this particular bug, but maybe put an overflow: hidden; on the body when the text area is visible (or just active, depending on your design). This may have the effect of not giving the browser anywhere "down" to scroll to.
