I was skimming recent bug reports and noticed this:
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67340

On an iPad in landscape mode, there's *very* little vertical room between
the VE toolbar and the top of the on-screen keyboard -- only about 220px of
height -- and the references dropdown menu is too tall and partly
disappears behind the keyboard. (Dismissing the keyboard kills focus and
hides the menu; scrolling doesn't move the toolbar and menu because they're
fixed to the viewport.)

There is however a lot of horizontal space... I notice that text selection
menus on mobile/tablet tend to be laid out horizontally: on iOS they're a
popup horizontal segmented button bar; on Android you get a
context-sensitive action-bar variant at the top of the screen.

Would a horizontally-focused menu design, maybe more like a second toolbar,
work better here?
