Welp, that doesn't work in the push transition. It hides the UINavigationBar. 
The sample code shows it as a modal transition that takes over the screen, but 
I want to do a push transition.

Thing is, it doesn't seem that any of the transition stuff works properly if 
you make it anything other than a modal (i.e. not a show/push).

Goddammit, Apple.
