This looks really cool, the world needs more stuff like this.

One minor complaint is with the scrollable slide-outs. When you scroll down through a slide-out like the Instagram one, and reach the bottom, the page behind starts scrolling.

This is a common problem, and why I dislike using scrollable areas on web pages in the first place. There must be a good way to fix this. I just don't want the outside area to scroll when my context is inside the small scrollable area.

Had the same issue. Would love to not have the outside area scroll if I'm trying to scroll the slide-out.
Seems like one possible way would be to overflow: hidden the background scrollable area while a popover is open, assuming that doesn't screw up its scroll position. Big problem with that is that it makes scrollbars go away :/
