@Jdlrobson, I can't seem to figure out why this is happening. Do you know why?

@bmansurov luckily I have ios simulator and just connected it up to Safari and remote debugged using developer tools. Luckily this one was a logical fix :) Not sure why it doesn't show up on Chrome - is something messed up with our position fixed support?

I'm not sure either, but your fix seems to work for overlays.

Do we need a task for fixing this properly or is this totally done?

@Jhernandez, it may be a good idea to look into why this is happening only on iOS. Having said that, the problem is fixed, so we may delay doing so until later.

I actually think ios is doing the right thing here and my bug fix makes sense.
The header of the search is position-fixed so with the drawer open it was correctly being transformed in ios.
I think the bug is thus in in any browser that is not doing this correctly.
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20574 < might be the cause?

Either way I'm confident we are not going to have this issue again, so it's probably not worth any extra investment in time.
