Enter several lines of text in a text entry box (like the one I'm typing into now). Try positioning the cursor in various places and then pressing the up and down arrow keys. The cursor inevitably goes either to the beginning of the target line, or the end, even if the horizontal position in the original line is within the horizontal extent of the target line. This is suboptimal and can make editing difficult. When I run with MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1, I see the desired behaviour: the horizontal position of the cursor is largely preserved.

I did some primitive debugging with printf's and believe that the bug is here: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/gfx/src/gtk/nsFontMetricsPango.cpp#987 pango_layout_xy_to_index() returns always FALSE when I'm moving the cursor up or down in textboxes. This may be expected behavior because it's no error indication but simply a flag telling if the position is inside the text frame, and probably it's always outside because of non-matching y position. I guess removing // Jump to the end if it's not found. if (!found) { if (inx == 0) retval = 0; else if (trailing) retval = aLength; goto loser; } will fix this bug. Also note the missing |else| here. |trailing| ist TRUE by random when moving up or down within text. Also, AIUI, we shouldn't use pango_layout_xy_to_index() at all here, but pango_layout_line_x_to_index(). Another bug is in http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/layout/generic/nsTextFrame.cpp#4135 because error checking is missing there. |indx| may be -1 to indicate an error. If that's the case the code should fall back to internal calculation of the position. I'm not going to investigate this in more depth because I'll switch to MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 anyways. Performance isn't acceptable with Pango on my low-end box. Component of this bug probably should be Core / GFX: Gtk, but I'm not allowed to change it. And the normal component of <textarea> bugs would be Core / Editor AFAIK.
