With WebRender turned on I seem to be getting significantly worse text positioning/hinting. Example included.

Do you have any other simpler test-cases? I am having trouble reproing this one.

Not really? Can you see the issue when you're just logging in to SSO?

Looked identical for me. No smushing of glyphs together like in the screenshots, even when using your name.
Bas, is this still an issue if you build from central? I included a recent change to how subpixel positioning is handled, so I wonder if this might be related to that.

I tested this pretty extensively, there's some text rendering differences but I can't reproduce the original bug.
