RE: A somewhat serious iPhone bug...any solutions?
Try this. Flick to the picker on the page. Double-tap it. Double-tap and hold on the second tap. After you hear the ascending tones, slide your finger up the screen slowly. As you do this you will hear quiet clicking. The clicking is the selection changing. If you want to read the selected item in the picker, flick left or right, then back. If it is not the correct item, double-tap and hold on the second again and follow the sliding trick again. Keep in mind that when you double-tap and hold, you may want to do it near the bottom of the screen so you have room to slide up.

Re: A somewhat serious iPhone bug...any solutions?
This is something that has been bothering me too recently. However, I am inclined to agree with Victor, I believe it is not a bug within iOS, but actually to do with how the websites themselves are set up. I do not find this is a problem on every web page and in every picker circumstance. It may be worth reporting, but from past experience, I suspect Apple will say that it is down to the webpage designer themselves to ensure the picker doesn't activate on each click. I also think that The second message in this list summed up the solution perfectly. This is exactly what needs to be done, it's maybe irritating, and in the situation where there are lots of picker items, it can be quite time-consuming, but it works better than if it self selects each time, Which as you said, it often does just with a swipe up.
