Details

When typing in the URL-Bar or in text-input-fields (for example this Description
box), the text-input-cursor seems to overlap with the letters (i.e. it is drawn
one pixel too early, as opposed to just about every other program utilizing this
kind of input) ... With some fonts this can be pretty annoying (for example the
font used in the URL-bar : when typing an "i", the cursor completely overlaps
the letter, making it difficult to proofread your URL if the last letter is an i
or similar ...)
The overlapped portion gets drawn in reverse when the cursor blinks, which is
nevertheless not much help with very narrow letters

Forgive me if I put this into the wront category or neglected to mention
something, I use Bugzilla for the first time (and my queries haven't brought up
this "bug" ...)
