I have not heard of this issue.

Please file a bug at bugs.webkit.org with a simple testcase.

I have searched around online and seen many web developers having this problem and forcing a refresh to work around it. By changing the zoom level to 1.1 and back to 1.0, by using eloffsetHeight in the element, or with el.hide().show().
