            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P1
         Component: Forms

If a textarea has enough content to cause it to scroll, text entered becomes
distorted.  It is fixed by selecting the text, but any new text entered is
distorted also.

1. FIll a textarea with enough content for scroll bars to appear.
2. Scroll to bottom of textarea and type, the text is distorted.
3. While the textarea has focus, press Cmd + A to select all text in the text
area.  The previously distorted text is now readable.
4. Place the cursor back at the bottom and type again - the new text is again
distorted.

For the text to appear distorted when typed, it doesn't have to be entered at
the very end of the content, but it happens anywhere that would not be visible
if the textarea is scrolled all the way to the top.

This regressed somehwere between r17003 and r17019 (probably r17018).
