Comment (by ryan):

 Possible remedies:

 * Removing the link on mobile
 * Reducing the size of the tap target
 * Redesigning log in to make sure username and password are both visible
 when the keyboard is up

 I'm fine with removing the link from the logo for all touch devices as an
 easy first step. Longer term we should think about what makes a good
 mobile log in screen. We currently give way too much screen over to a logo
 that links offsite. A brief survey of large web properties suggests a
 conscientiousness for avoiding big logos, avoiding links on header images,
 and keeping the username and password fields on screen even when the
 keyboard is up.
