When typing text into a large text box the text letters apper in the opposit order.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Thanks for the bug report. We need some additional information to help us reproduce the problem: Which version of Bugzilla are you using and what kind of custom field exactly?

Bugzilla version is 4.0.1

The field is a "Custom Field" of type "Large Text Box". It doesn't matter wether it was mandatory or not. In my case "Editable on Bug Creation" is checked. "In Bugmail on Bug Creation" and "Is Obsolete" are not checked.
