(In reply to Charles from comment #124)

IMHO the problem is in the coupling between TB and FF. I think it's
quite reasonable that the FF people are more conservative. Who would
want to break a browser with a big market share.

TB on the other hand is client software. An nothing should stop client
software to pick its foundation and additional patches. I've seen client
software (KompoZer, or for example KDE with its so-called "build
dependencies") where I couldn't believe my eyes how much they patch the
underlying components.

This discussion, however, should be continued elsewhere.

Title:
  composer changes font mid email

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Confirmed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  As I'm typing my emails in Thunderbird, I can see what appears to be a
  font size change on screen, normally in the second line of text. The
  second line appear smaller than the first. It's barely perceptible, so
  half them time I think I am imagining it.

  Well, I've started Bccing to myself to check, and the emails I am
  receiving from myself are not only a different size, they're also a
  different font. Composer starts in some default serif, and by the
  second line is sans. I'd bee glad to email someone viz thunderbird,
  and also send along a screenshot of how it looks while I am typing.

  Thanks.
