I want the button press to pop up a modal UIImagePickerController which will eventually pick the image for the cell I'm in. To pop it up I need a UIViewController instance to pop it up from, and to pop it down again afterwards.

I wasn't able to find a way to navigate down the UIViewController stack to find the bottom one, even if I could it sounds a bit fragile.
