There could well be a bug here, nobody has done this kind of thing as far as I know, and the code for handling a SurfaceView is quite complicated and could easily have bugs in this area.
So feel free to file a bug. That said, I can't make any promises about this being addressed any time soon, as there are probably many features and bugs that at this point have a significantly higher priority. If it is something that someone really wants to have fixed, the best way to get a result on it would probably be to debug the platform and submit a patch to fix it. :} (Which I know is asking a lot, because this IS very tricky code.) Oh one other thing, you might want to use hierarchyviewer just to make sure the state of your view hierarchy looks sane.
