And how well will that approach work with an updated release that moves things around to different locations? Hint: many apps have broken with updated OS releases when system UI objects are changed internally.
Anything that hard codes in coordinate assumptions of system views is problematic - especially code like: [UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(12.0, 45.0, 260.0, 25.0)] or: CGAffineTransform translate = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(0.0, 130.0); [self setTransform:translate]; The hard coding of coordinate values also can cause problems when running the OS with a non-English language (since the metrics of different languages can be different).
