Horizontal layout: does not leave space for seeing what you type

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Turn phone to horizontal position
2. Try to type text in sms or internet browser 
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
One is expected to see in the top part of the screen (in horiz layout) what one 
types. But acctually the text one types is (almost) always hidden behind the 
keyboard (or its word suggestion line), thus making it unusable. I suspect the 
thetexy you type should ne somehow scrolled to be always visible in the tiny 
space at the top of the screen  (at least the line of text with the cursor 
position), but that just does not happen.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? The latest 
version of ASK from Android Market. Nexus S. And 2.3.6
