If a text fragment is styled with text-transform:uppercase
the German 'ß' character (ß) is converted into
'SS'. During this conversion the last character is chopped
off the string. If the fragment contains more than one 'ß' 
there is still just one character missing.

The bug happens with or without the usage of the entity. It
has once be mentioned here [0] in a different context,
but still exists in FF 1.0.3, so I thought I should open a new
one.
