Autocorrect cannot be dismissed in some cases

This bug occurs when using iPhone 4 with ios 4.3.3 and iPad with ios 4.2.1.

I'm a web developer. I'm having a bug with the following reproduction steps:

1. Create a textarea, and use addEventListener to bind "touchstart" or "touchmove" events to the textarea or any div behind the textarea.

2. Type a misspelled word in the textarea such that an autocorrect popup appears.

3. Attempt to dismiss the autocorrect suggestion by clicking on the x.

Result: the autocorrect suggestion will not disappear.

Note that this bug occurs on Facebook when trying to update your status via the website through safari on the iPhone.

iPhone 4, iOS 4.3.2
