This bug is tracks down an issue as reported for Blink as issues 166258[1] and 166263[2]. Description of the issue as reported there is as follows:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. insert div in page source:
<div style='width: 100px; text-align: right; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap; padding-left: 20px;'>text in div, where ellipsis?</div>
2. open page in browser
3. make sure there's no ellipsis in the page

What is the expected behavior?
ellipsis at the end of truncated string

What went wrong?
ellipsis doesn't appear (check [3] for an screenshot showing this issue)

I'll propose a backport patch fixing this issue as soon as patch for bug 71194 has landed, as that's a dependency
