Or you can just change the class of background view to UIControl and wire it so it calls resignFirsResponder on inputs if touched.

Yes, that would work as well, but if you do that, you have to make sure that you leave a wide enough margin (at least 44 points wide) on each side of the controls to allow for touching the background.
