<pre>Note: The component may be Lib/Xrender but Driver/intel was chosen due to
platform-specific issues.
This is the second of two bug reports I am filing, since the symptoms are
distinct.
A few other users encountered an issue in Firefox (using certain Intel IGPs,
various distributions) where a recent feature added to Firefox (essentially, an
auto-disappearing forward button) causes text in the address bar to disappear:
see link.

While the Firefox team is considering implementing their own workaround, the
underlying problem is through Xrender, since the proposed workaround is to
disable it in Firefox. I am adding this bug report to document this as an
example, given the number of various corruption bugs out there, to see if this
can be connected with others, feedback on additional information to collect,
and possibly help to get a fix from Xrender.</pre>
