Finally comparing our skins/contrib/Wikimedia/global.css in https://git.wikimedia.org/tree/wikimedia%2Fbugzilla%2Fmodifications.git to skins/standard/global.css in upstream http://bzr.mozilla.org/bugzilla/4.2/files , we have quite some delta.
The Bugzilla 4.2 upstream code defines various classes which are not even listed in our custom CSS, such as
.field_value .text_input .field_help_link div.bz_query_buttons .arrow_button input.requestee .bz_comment_text span.quote .bz_collapse_expand_comments .bz_collapse_expand_comments li tbody.file pre
etc., etc.
My guts tell me this might be the reason for numerous issues, like bug 36064 comment 14 ("input.requestee", anyone?) or maybe even bug 42850. Yeah. :-(
Have I mentioned that I dislike creating custom skins and then not maintaining them anymore?
