User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

I've only notice this in Firefox 3.6
An input or textarea will display, if the font-family is set to Lucida Sans, in bold. You can go to any site and change, using firebug, the font-family on the inputs and the text will bold. Doesn't appear to always be the case on textarea.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Firebug an input field.
2. Change or add Font-family to use "Lucida Sans"


Expected Results:  
Displayed it at normal font weight.
