All web browsers in iOS run the same engine (Safari). So while Google should fix their layout, this is a very good example on why Apple should allow alternative web engines in their OS.

Devil's advocate: Having only 1 engine means that a website only needs to test once to make sure they support all iPhone+iPad browsers.
You might think so but you would be wrong. For example, try making a link to add a calendar event from Safari vs. Chrome vs. Facebook in-app browser, etc.
Write to the spec and forget about it.
