It's intentional by design. The description is valid in context on current page only.
I guess we are talking about different things :) The thing I mean is probably not intentional. I will attach a screenshot, so it will be more obvious.

Seems to be a problem of a graphic driver. I was able to reproduce this only on another computer with older nVidia card (RIVA TNT series). The problem dissapeared when I turned off HW acceleration in System settings. So, verifiing as WONTFIX, as it is not a NB problem.
It is NB problem, reopening to assign duplicate, BTW already fixed.
