iScrolling while not clicking links

iScrolling while not clicking links

So how does one deal with iScroll in situations where links take up a lot of space, or for YouTube embeds etc.? I came across the stuff below, but is there a better way?

I'm using jQuery Mobile 1.3.1 with iScrollView 1.3.2.

Invisible overlay which relays clicks:

I quite like this, although the overlay CSS can be tricky.

Looks kinda messy:
