  • @DJDavid98 now that you mention it, this specific instance doesn't overlap for me, either. Is this part of the new slimmer UX? – MikeTheLiar Jan 23 '13 at 21:38
  • These issues are dependent upon your browser and/or font settings. Different browsers, fonts, etc will cause different line heights and other small differences that aren't very noticeable on the large scale but are for tiny things such as this. – animuson♦ Jan 23 '13 at 23:40
  • @animuson I'd like an 'official' verdict on this. If it is indeed browser/setting dependent, I'd like to how to stop this from happening, because it's annoying as hell. – MikeTheLiar Jan 24 '13 at 0:35
