Found the mozilla but report. It indicates that this is an Adobe problem
& that Adobe are aware of it:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137189

Adobe wants to fix it. They had received a lot of user feedback and in
fact were pressuring us to fix our side (which we have done). So don't
annoy them please.

What KHTML does is a partial solution. It's not going to happen for 1.9
although we will be able to do it after that.

If their own website http://www.adobe.com/ displays this issue, then I'm
all for 'annoying them' via proper bug report on their system... now I
just have to find where it is.
