Description D.S. Ljungmark 2011-04-03 09:36:57 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

When the preview pane is loading for a message, it starts moving with some 5-10 pixels up and down, causing a very jarring experience that leads to something akin to motion sickness.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.load a mailing list with preview pane active
2. skip to the next message
3. watch the preview pane move up and down repeatedly
Actual Results:  
preview pane moving itself appearantly based on the speed of the font rendering

Expected Results:  
A very smooth and fluid font rendering without any movement.

It's due to the Adwaita theme.  Already fixed upstream for 3.1.  I'll backport it for 3.0.1 once GNOME's hard code freeze has ended.
