Comment 159 for bug 11334

Good news guys!

This guy from Red Hat, called Martin Stránský, just fixed this bug in upstream Firefox! The mozilla devs merged the patch into the "mozilla1.9.3" branch (current hg master) which means that it will probably go out in Firefox 3.7

Firefox 3.7 won't be ready in time for Lucid though (see schedule here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Roadmap ) but there is always the possibility that someone (you?) will work with Alexander Sack and the rest of the Mozilla Ubuntu team to get this backported to the Firefox version in Lucid.

If someone is interested, the specific patch that fixed this bug looked like this:
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/270a70535807

We still need a more generic fix that handles all X.org apps of course.
