Just so that its said, wfm on linux, so it seams to be windows only.
That's not terribly surprising since each platform has its own separate UI implementation, but thanks for checking that.
I'm still seeing this behavior

.. on Windows after every crash
I tested Ted's idea to use a RichEdit v4.1 control in this dialog. I can confirm it fixes the problem on Windows. We might want to uplift this fix.

Sorry for missing that. This is a trivial fix and I would support landing it on any branch.

I don't think we can 100% guarantee that the only possible regression here would be a still non-functioning button. This is a longstanding issue, and therefore does not require an urgent fix. We should be very cautious when making any changes to crash reporting. Please uplift to Aurora. Thanks!

Verified with Firefox 20 beta 2 (build ID: 20130227063501), on a Windows 7 64-bit machine.

To test this, I've done:

1) Install Crash me! add-on
2) Provoke a crash
3) Check the "Tell Mozilla" box
4) Click on the "Details" button. A dialog shows, providing the requested information
