Downgranding to 22 corrects the issue all version above 22 seem to have this bug.

I'm going to dupe this over to bug 963950, since the new Firefox 29 theme will be officially released tomorrow. I believe it's a bit better, but we've still got work to do.

Also... If you _just_ updated to Firefox 28 Beta you've missed the entire beta cycle and the chance to give feedback on it.

Updated to 29 Beta, seems to be much improved and readable.
