------- Additional Comments from Antti Koivisto <koivisto at iki.fi>
Actual problem is that the caret is painted twice, once by the associated
renderer and another time by renderer's containing block. Painting done by the
containing block won't respect clipping established by the renderer.

I'm not actually sure why it is ever necessary to paint caret in both the
associated renderer and the containing block. The patch just fixes a case where
this double painting actually causes problems.
