Details

See:
http://www.hixie.ch/tests/adhoc/css/text/white-space/normal/line-breaking/bidi/003.html

There is a line of &nbsp; characters mixed in with RLO, LRO, and PDFs. The
result should be that the overrides have no effect on the rendering. All is well
until an unstyled <span> is introduced to the mix, where suddenly the line
breaks at another position.
Depends on: line-breaking
No longer depends on: line-breaking
Bug 282760 was actually a duplicate of this bug, and the fix to that bug fixes
this testcase as well (verified by comparing a 20050620 build to a 20050621 build).

When verifying this, plese remember to install the Ahem font (from
http://www.hixie.ch/resources/fonts/) and restart Firefox before viewing the
statcase.
