This is how the screen looks when you click the label to the far-away input

When a label is clicked that is below it's "for" input, the input which receives focus should be scrolled to.

If the label is far below the input for some reason the scroll does not happen.

The input is focused and the keyboard comes up. When you begin to type the window will then scrolls to the input.

I first spotted this in iOS 9.2 and it continues to be in 9.3

Here is a link with an example of the issue:

The code is simple:

<form>
  <input id="search1">
  <br>
  <br>
  <br>(repeat a lot of br tags)

  <label for="search1">Click</label>
</form>
