The fact that this only happens on macOS is... smelly. Markus, I don't suppose you have any idea off-hand what is causing the flicker here? It's a little tricky to debug on the frontend side, but given it's platform-specific I'm pretty suspicious it's a platform issue at heart.

I agree it's probably a platform issue. Let's move it to Web Painting.

I can't reproduce this on my machine.

The product::component has been changed since the backlog priority was decided, so we're resetting it.
