It does not work that bad if you go to the link I posted earlier, choose a topic with many replies, scroll all the way down then click the magnifying glass.  
It will scroll up and focus text field, keyboard appears.  
I am on iPad though, maybe it does not work on iPhone, any users could test?  
Maybe it bugs when you are all the way down a gigantic topic where the top posts are not loaded?
