I posted a new bug early this morning (443635) because I didn't find this ticket. I was assuming it was a font rendering issue. But you may want to look at my example on that ticket to see why the FF2 behaviour was FAR better than the new FF3 behaviour. You could make it user selectable but that's a lot of work. If it were up to me (HAH!) I'd just fix it back to the old way.
