bug: Date based inputs behave poorly with focus cloning

[jeremyrussell]

Type: bug

Platform: ios 8 webview

When an input field is given focus, it is cloned by ionic and moved off screen, from what I have read this feature was introduced to resolve cursor issues. This functionality exhibits a weird behaviour for date based inputs (i.e. date, time, datetime-local and month), in that when the input has focus and the page is scrolled the value of the input is not displayed. I'm not sure why this is, however I found that by simply excluding date based inputs from the cloning process, my problem was resolved.

Here is my simple code change: master...jeremyrussell:cloned-input-focus-scroll-issue

I have also uploaded a video to youtube to illustrate the issue:

And, here's a codepen: http://codepen.io/jeremyrussell/pen/bdreGK
Note, however that the app needs to be run as a hybrid app to reproduce the error
