-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch disables the feature where tapping the phone's status bar scrolls content back to the top. That has been a showstopper for most of the things I have worked on.

True. I wonder if there's a fix for this in PhoneGap, at least.
One workaround that was functional but subpar experience-wise:

Put a transparent UIView over the status bar and wire it up to call a javascript function on your UIWebView using stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString.

That sounds like a bug. Have you submitted a radar on it?
You can fake it with some pretty simple Javascript.
I have tried many a workaround, all quickly reveal a pretty crappy non-native experience.
