Comment (by ryan):

 I gave 29906-6-comment15.diff a quick run through on an iPhone 6+. If you
 tap a blank area of the admin bar to dismiss a menu, your next tap on the
 admin bar gets eaten. Example: Tap the Dashboard icon. Tap an empty area
 of the admin bar to dismiss Dashboard. Tap +. The tap causes a brief blink
 of the active color on the icon but otherwise does nothing. A second tap
 on + brings up the menu. Other than that, looks good on iPhone 6+.

 Removing the links from the icons on desktop needs more discussion.
 Removing the links is good behavior on mobile, but our desktop behavior
 has long been to use the admin bar icons as both menu actuators (on mouse
 entry) and action buttons (when clicked). This should be a conscious
 change, if we do it. If we made desktop behave like mobile, I'd probably
 want to lose the Visit Site menu from the Home icon (wp-admin-bar-site-
 name) so that the home icon could be used like a button (like the Comments
 icon). If we don't want to match mobile and desktop right now, can we
 support both behaviors conditionally?
