           Summary: text inputs + margins causes wrapping in windows webkit
           Product: WebKit

          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://americanexpress.com/activate

After http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/43355, the three text inputs in the
middle of the page wrap when they shouldn't in Windows WebKit. The problem is
that we match IE widths for the inputs, but then have extra margins that cause
the three inputs to not fit on the line.

There's a couple things we could do to fix this:
1. When we have intrinsic margins, make inputs/textareas correspondingly
smaller.
2. Use the IE margins on inputs/textareas and live with them looking somewhat
less pretty.
3. Always make inputs/textareas smaller by the fixed amount that we grow
intrinsic margins by.
4. Live with the incompatibility and try to contact the americanexpress.com
webmaster to fix their site.

It's not clear to me what the best choice here is.
