I'm not even quite sure how this is managing this, but somehow when you enclose
some widgets and text in a fieldset, the widgets and text overflow out of the
fieldset. The fieldset border does not expand to enclose all the text, so you
end up with these wierd situation where the text is on top of the fieldset
borders.
For an example, open the pref window, go to the "Addressing" pane, and make the
window narrow until text starts wrapping. Notice that the fieldsets never get
taller, but the text inside them moves down, overwriting other text and
controls. Many other preference panes and other dialogs which use fieldsets
suffer from this problem.
This is really hurting preferences when users have Large Fonts turned on because
text gets all muddled and cannot be read.

Fieldsets are not used in preferences anymore. We use TitledBoxes instead so
this bug is now fixed. Fieldsets should never be used in XUL directly. They
should always be nested in a XUL <html> tag.
