title: UITableViewController with picker view
body: <p>I've a serious problem, and I cannot solve it by myself. I've spent hours searching the documentations, programming guides as well as developer forums and stack overflow.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is I want to display a picker view in UITableViewController. I have a screen that has multiple text fields allowing me to search by title/author/keywords... and I'd also like to specify the minimum and maximum dates, using the UIDatePicker (or UIPickerView - to specify "last 5 days" for example).</p>
  
  <p>I want to use UITableViewController because it saves me a lot of time resizing the table while the keyboard pops up when user presses the text field. In fact I've never been able to reproduce this animation using UIViewController and listening to textfields' delegate. It was almost perfect but there were some visible disadvantages comparing to the behaviour of table if displayed using UITableViewController.</p>
  
  <p>So everything's fine when there are only textfields. But what about the date fileds? I want to make it exactly like the Contacts.app by Apple when I want to add a new contact and specify the birthday. In that application the Date Picker is shown, the table is resized, switching between email/phone field and birthday works great. I could believe that the date picker is in this case the keyboard but not for typing phone/email but date because it slides in/out just like a keyboard and is replaced instantly when the keyboard/picker is opened.</p>
  
  <p>How did thet accomplished it?
  Or where can I find the easiest solution to reproduce it. I believe it cannot be as hard because it's very common situation.</p>
  
  <p>Regards
