Description (last modified by FND) (diff)

(confirmed for Firefox 3 and Safari)

This is caused by an obsolete CSS hack:
Generally, absolutely positioned elements (here: backstagePanel) are shrink-wrapped. However, in Firefox 2 right-floated containing elements (here: backstagePanelFooter) caused their container to expand to full width - which was, in fact, a rendering bug that has been fixed in Firefox 3.

Ideally, backstage panels would not expand to full width, but instead remain shrink-wrapped but start directly below the respective backstage toolbar button. However, this would require refactoring the underlying HTML structure (proper nesting).
