Recently I've noticed that one my windows, which contained a tableview and a searchbar on top, wasn't working properly.

After some testing and source code commenting, I've realized that a tableview, if the backgroundColor is set to 'transparent', when searching/filtering the rows (with a SearchBar), titanium overlays the table with a new one (filtered), but since its set to be transparent, user sees both tables. The result can be seen on the image and video links below:

And here is the window source:

// set some variables to work with flickr
var api_key = '', // my key => CHANGE TO LMP'S
    user_id = '26142469%40N02'; // LMP flickr id

// reference to current window
var win = Titanium.UI.currentWindow;

// create table view
var search = Titanium.UI.createSearchBar({
    hintText: "Search album title",
    barColor:'#0055ad'
});
var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
    backgroundColor:'transparent',
    separatorStyle: Titanium.UI.iPhone.TableViewSeparatorStyle.NONE,
    search:search
});

var navActInd = Titanium.UI.createActivityIndicator();
navActInd.show();
win.setRightNavButton(navActInd);

var yql_query = 'select * from xml where url="http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photosets.getList&api_key='+api_key+'&user_id='+user_id+'"';
Ti.API.debug(yql_query);

Titanium.Yahoo.yql(yql_query, function(e)
{
    var images = [];
    var data = e.data;

    for (var i=0; i< data.rsp.photosets.photoset.length; i++) 
    {
        var photoset = data.rsp.photosets.photoset[i];
        // form the flickr url
        var url = 'http://farm' + photoset.farm + '.static.flickr.com/' + photoset.server + '/' + photoset.primary + '_' + photoset.secret + '_m.jpg';
        var row = Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
