This is the problem I reported in mozilla oh-so-long ago..
It is a bug in the browser..
you will find that the content height is returned as expected..
which does tell us it is a bug.
I reported the bug to the mozilla bugzilla..
So it's a matter of time..
unless one of you wants to dive into the mozilla code....
I've thought of it.. but I expect it would be a full-time project just
to get comfortable working in their code-base
