I don't agree.  The essential difference is that hitting backspace in an
"empty" message body (no user typing from beginning of the message) no
longer "moves" the cursor away from the insertion point, where it used
to.  The loss of user-preference formatting is predicated on that
movement.

Try following the dupes and seeing what they have to say about.  Some of
those dupes might be mistaken -- and, as I said, the summary of this bug
isn't really to the point.

I was granted bug-editing privileges in 2003.  I remember when Esther was 
active in Bugzilla.  I put several boatloads of work into bug triage from 2003 
to 2007.
You?

I don't mind at all if one or more new bugs are started to sort this one
out.  Given the state of this bug, that probably *would* be best.

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.
