Description Mihai Sucan CLA 2012-08-02 14:35:54 EDT 
( based on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779882 )

Some characters change the line height, thus breaking Orion's rendering, because it relies on a fixed line height.

In the Mozilla bug report mentioned above, on Macs, with the default monospace font, if you add the "⌘" character to a line, Orion starts misbehaving.

I am not sure if there's anything that can be done in Orion for such cases? Except bug 334910.

The editor now switches to variable line height when necessary.
