No, it doesn't. A UISearchDisplayController is a controller. A UIToolbar is a 
view. A controller can't "sit in" a view. It is really helpful if your question 
is formulated so as to use language and concepts accurately. Otherwise everyone 
has to guess what you really mean, which is difficult and inaccurate. Maybe 
what you mean is that a UISearchBar sits in a UIToolbar, but it's really hard 
to tell, and we shouldn't have to guess (and doesn't explain what the 
UISearchDisplayController has to do with the story). Your misformulation might 
or might not even mask the source of the problem.

Again - "the popover"? You never said anything up to this point about a 
popover, so how does it come in? Basically, it will help if you describe what 
is really happening. Of course having a problem is frustrating, but don't take 
it out on the list! :) Taking the time for structure a clear and accurate 
description of the problem could actually help you towards a solution, as well 
as allowing others to reproduce or analyze it usefully.

It sounds like what you're really complaining about is that when there's a 
memory warning your popover is dismissed. Is that right? This doesn't happen 
for me when I'm displaying a popover and I simulate a memory warning in the 
simulator, so again, how are you generating your warning? 

Basically, what I'm asking is that you do what a scientist would do in lab 
notes: say enough to constitute instructions so that someone else can perform 
the same experiment. Otherwise no one even knows that the problem really is.
