Textareas not scrollable when focused

[joemcelroy]

Setup: ionic beta.6

In my app I have a detail screen which has a few textareas which are editable. When a user is editing a textarea, the height may be larger than the viewport so its necessary to be able to scroll to particular parts of the textarea.

In ionic, when a textarea is in focus, ion-scroll is prevented from scrolling. This stops the user from scrolling to other areas of the view and sometimes the whole body scrolls which hides the navigation (possible bug).

Ive made a codepen to show what I mean:

Is this a bug or expected behaviour?
