583302 - backspacing using formfill leaves textual residue

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

See screenshot.  someone should probably give it a better summary. 

i'm told this will go away once layers lands and tiles are ripped out.  

Repro:
1) install fennec nightly trunk: 20100730
2) set browser.tabs.remote = true
3) visit a site with login and activate formfill (eg. google reader)
4) type in characters in the field, and then hit backspace
5) verify there is textual residues remaining in the textbox

Expected:
- clean that up and look normal

Yeah, definitely the tile canvas screwing up. And layers really does save us here. I can't wait!

I thought I saw some wierdness if the field was already populated when you first get the page, but I cannot reproduce.
