Bug Description

I recently discovered that specifying 'anchorToKeyboard: true' will resize things like lists when the keyboard appears such that there is a small space between the keyboard and the bottom of the list. This is great! However, if I turn the phone sideways (landscape), the resizing doesn't appear to happen. This can be seen by using 'utudu' from the store, add a few items to the list and then turn sideways. Maybe it is actually resizing, but there isn't enough room to show the resized elements.... (I can't verify that cause I can't see under the keyboard).

How do you reproduce this? Without an example I'm not sure how to evaluate the problem.

I don't have a simple reproducer, but it can be seen in utudu from the store. Steps to reproduce:
1. install utudu from the store on a phone
2. tap '+' in the upper right and create a checklist (eg, name it 1287701 and tap Enter. this will create the list and open it)
3. from within the list, add several list items. Eg, A, B, C, D, E
4. rotate horizontally

That example can't work. The list is scrollable but the entire view isn't. The textfield can't be scrolled down so all anchorToKeyboard will do is shrink the visible height. This is a bug in the app.
