1) Visit the URL above
2) Log in
3) Resize a textarea (say "Done") so that the grabber goes under adjacent status updates
4) Grabber can't be grabbed, meaning textarea can't be resized anymore

Expected results: grabber can be grabbed.
Still an annoying bug.  Who does UX triage for firefox?
Not resizer related. Mouse events aren't being handled by the textarea as it is underneath something else. Note that the cursor doesn't change while hovering for example.
Given that, it's not clear to me that this is something we can fix on the gecko side. Maybe bsmedberg can work around it with a style tweak?
Workaround pushed to production (making the textarea position:relative moves it up in the z-order).
Severity: normal → S3
