I came across a strange bug in my app:
The setup
A simple Master-Detail app, iPhone style (ie. no split view, no popover, just a navigation controller, a table view controller, and a view controller).
The bug
You can also touch multiple cells at step 2 and their destination views will be stacked in the correct order :)
Reproduce it
I was able to reproduce the bug with a clean, freshly created app, and on the last release of the Twitter app for iPhone (by touching the "Loading" label with finger #1 and touching a tweet multiple times).
However, I could not trigger the same behaviour in the Settings app, under the "General" tab (which is a grouped table view).
The bug was reproduced on iOS 6.0 and 6.1. I don't have devices with older versions to test.
Question
Is this a known trick when creating navigation/table view based apps and if so is there a solution to prevent this (weird) behavior ? Or is this an iOS bug (and if so, is it already known from Apple) ?
This is fixed by Apple in iOS 7.
For prior versions of the OS, Dan F's answer should do the trick.
