title: UITableView not responding to setUserInteractionEnabled
body: <p>This question has been asked <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3294701/cant-make-table-view-inactive-when-search-bar-is-in-use-iphone">here</a> in a slightly different form, but the question has not been addressed in this thread, hence this thread.</p>
  
  <p>In my iPad application, I allow the user to select a number of cells in a table view. After the user has tapped a button, a process begins and the user is not allowed to interact with the table view at that point (rest assured, the user can still interact with the application).</p>
  
  <p>To accomplish this, I thought the "userInteractionEnabled" property of the UITableView was the answer, but in spite of setting this property to NO (and checking that it is indeed set to NO), the user can still interact with the table view.</p>
  
  <p>I also tried the same approach in a fresh Xcode template project and that works fine. Am I missing something essential?</p>
