Templates and tables, maybe, but only a minority of editors work extensively with those. More often than not, for complicated templates and tables, each item (cell/parameter) is put on a new line anyway. The only argument I can see here is that it might cause fights as Safari users break other people's pretty-printing without noticing that it was supposed to be aligned in the first place, but this presentational difference has been the status quo since *forever*, and apparently no such fights have broken out. I don't see why we should be overriding browser defaults here. Proportional fonts are ugly. Safari made the aesthetic choice to make textareas proportional, and its users are used to that. We shouldn't override that decision (or any other platform/browser convention) without a very clear reason. I'm reopening again. I'd like to not reclose until we get word from Brion or Tim or someone. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
