goto http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/, and mouse over the "View Bugs Already
Reported Today" link. You will see some terrible UI horkage (the reason for cc:
ben goodger) - the urlbar widget gets extended over the navigation buttons, the
scroll bar dissapears.

The reason for this is that the shown link in the status bar is longer that the
bar itself. Bugzilla links are highly prone to this.

Not sure if this is XPToolkit or XPApps or UI.

This looks just like bug #37658 I think this comes from ben's change to
navigatorOverlay.xul
a fix for this was checked in by ben

The fix was to add 'flex="1"' to xul:text in the binding for 'statusbar-panel'
(in xmlBindings.xml) if anyone wanted to know.

... and the drawback of closing early, is that people don't find this bug
when they look for an existing open bug. Duh. Taking this bug for now.
