Classification: Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
If you show a map view or any other view with search results in front of the UISearchDisplayController and check if it's visible with UIAutomation, the result is false even though the view is in front and can be interacted with.

Please see http://s.swic.name/X1Su for a test project and test script in an Instruments trace file.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add search display controller
2. Add map view
3. Move map subview to front on searchDisplayControllerDidBeginSearch
4. Test if map view is visible in Instruments/UIAutomation

Expected Results:
target.frontMostApp().mainWindow().mapViews()[0].isVisible() should evaluate to true

Actual Results:
target.frontMostApp().mainWindow().mapViews()[0].isVisible() evaluates to false
