8893 - {css1}fonts in PRE handled incorrectly

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect, P3)

Description

[David Baron :dbaron: (⌚️UTC-4, no longer working on Mozilla)]

This is spun off of bug 582.

The PRE element does not handle fonts correctly.  If a PRE element is inside
something that specifies a different font, the monospace font on PRE should
win.  There is no need for quirks behavior, since IE5 gets this correct.  See
above test case, 11th paragraph.

Quirks mode was designed to mimic Navs quirks, not IE's. I'd really rather not
support this particular quirk myself, but we have to. Auto mode detection will
be connected soon and hopefully all of the old quirks will fade away over
time...

Migrating from {css1} to css1 keyword. The {css1}, {css2}, {css3} and {css-moz}
radars should now be considered deprecated in favour of keywords.
I am *really* sorry about the spam...
