Composer uses a XUL text widget for its view source pane, but this has refresh issues, thus: 1. Bring up new composer window. 2. Go to HTML source mode (View menu) 3. Click just after the <body> tag to put the caret there 4. Hit Return to make a new line, and type. 5. Notice that it looks like you are typing over the <br> that follows 6. Collapse and expand the window, so that it redraws. Note that there was a redraw problem. This seems to be a Mac-only problem.
I don't see this problem on Linux branch build from today; only on my Macintosh debug build

With the Oct 10 Mac build (2000101008), I can't reproduce the problem with the steps provided.
I also don't see this with PR3 on the Mac either. Simon, what build were you using? Is this only a debug issue?
Tested on Mac OS 9.0.4 on a Powermac G4/450.
I don't see this on a mozilla mac debug branch build from this morning. I did see this bug the day it was reported. I recommend we resolve this as fixed or worksforme.
