Please set this bug to confirmed. It looks like this is the last little bug
concerning the form widgets. See Bug 197094:

Attachment: icon garbage

Screen grab to show what's going on.

Camino seems to have a hard time drawng form widgets if the table they are in is
small.

I think that introducing a minimum button width and over ruling some of the
layouts of pages should make sure Camino doesn't display garbage like this.
