No, no one is saying it is not a bug.  I was just showing what was
happening that was causing (at least this particular manifestation) to
happen.

You are at risk of invoking the bug if you do anything other than
straight, continuous typing.  Hitting Enter does not invoke the bug.

A trick to help solve it is to hit Enter several times as the FIRST
thing you type.  This moves the hidden [ /font ] tag down the page a
bit.  So, if you move the cursor, then move it back at the end of your
actual typing, it is still above the tag.

And yes, do VOTE for this.

Title:
  composer changes font mid email

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Confirmed
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  As I'm typing my emails in Thunderbird, I can see what appears to be a
  font size change on screen, normally in the second line of text. The
  second line appear smaller than the first. It's barely perceptible, so
  half them time I think I am imagining it.

  Well, I've started Bccing to myself to check, and the emails I am
  receiving from myself are not only a different size, they're also a
  different font. Composer starts in some default serif, and by the
  second line is sans. I'd bee glad to email someone viz thunderbird,
  and also send along a screenshot of how it looks while I am typing.

  Thanks.
