when using a RTL language pack (e.g. hebrew or arabic), and the interface is
aligned right, the text in the card details goes out of the details pane (lower
pane). if you move the address books pane border by as much as a pixel, it goes
back to it's place.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Steps to Reproduce:
1.aligning the interface to the right: add these lines to the file intl.css, in
the locale\en-US\global, in the en-US.jar file (the language pack file, in the
chrome folder):

/*make UI RTL */

window,dialog,wizard,page { direction: rtl; }

menu { direction: rtl; }

outliner { direction: rtl; }

/*
 * make sure search from address bar remains in RTL
 */

#urlbar .autocomplete-search-engine
{
direction: rtl !important;
}

/*
 * keep Composer <HTML> Source tab LTR
 */

#content-source,
#doctype-text { direction: ltr; }


2.start mozilla.
3.open the address book
4. make sure you have some contacts that don't have display names, and some that do.
5. select a contact with no display name (i checked contacts that only had email
addresses). the details are displayed correctly in the lower pane.
6. now select a contact that has a display name, either with the mouse or the
keyboard arrows. see how the text in the lower pane starts off the pane, and
it's start (right end) cannot be seen.
7. grab the border between the address books pane (right pane after step 1) and
move it a bit. see how the text goes back to place.

Actual Results:  
text starts off the pane

Expected Results:  
text should start inside the pane, as it does after resize.
