When loading an RTL directed web page that needs to be scrolled left, you get a zoomed version of the page and unable to scroll left to see more content. You cannot zoom out any further either.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a webpage whose direction is RTL
2. try to scroll left to see further content
Actual Results:  
the tabs menu is opened

Expected Results:  
the page should scroll/pan to the left allowing to view further content and finally open the tabs menu.

You can see the bad result in this page (you cannot scroll left):
http://www.sijp.co.il/files/fennecrtlbug.html
or with this code:
<html dir=rtl><head><style>div {width:200%;height:100%;background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(left, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet);}</style></head><body><div></div></body></html>

And the equivalent good LTR result in this page (you can scroll right):
http://www.sijp.co.il/files/fennecltrnobug.html
or with this code:
<html><head><style>div {width:200%;height:100%;background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(left, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet);}</style></head><body><div></div></body></html>

What do you mean by saying that this bug is not always reproducing? Can you please point us when it does reproduce and where it doesn't reproduce well?

Hey, why did you converted my data: URL testcase I sent you to plain html code? We like data: URLs because it help us to do experiments with the code without being needed to edit local files. 


data:text/html,<html%20dir=rtl><head><style>div%20{width:200%;height:100%;background-image:%20-moz-linear-gradient(left,%20red,%20orange,%20yellow,%20green,%20blue,%20indigo,%20violet);}</style></head><body><div></div></body></html>


This bug, if can be confirmed by others, is indeed a major issue for RTL websites, as it make most of them not functional to us, and I'd be very happy if we can get it fixed before final release.
