This may be an regession of bug 287990

plaintext is not displayed with white-space:pre and font-family:monospace like
in former versions (I tested with FF1.0.2) and all other browsers.

To fix this is easy. Change this lines in html.css

xmp, pre {
  display: block;
  font-family: -moz-fixed;
  white-space: pre;
  margin: 1em 0;
}

to this:

plaintext, xmp, pre {
  display: block;
  font-family: -moz-fixed;
  white-space: pre;
  margin: 1em 0;
}

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to URL above or to testcase (coming soon) and note the plaintext element,
it's the grey box.

Actual Results:  
The plaintext element is inline, has no fixed font, white-space is collapsed.

Expected Results:  
The plaintext element is a block element, font is fixed, white-space don't collapse.
