This is not only intentional, we went to a lot of trouble to implement it. :) Apparently this is what people seem to expect when using a touch device. And there is some logic especially on a phone, because there's not a lot of space and the scrollbar can take up some of it. You'll notice it never becomes completely invisible, preserving your ability to use the scrollbar as an indicate of your place in the scrollable view.
