The header row in the bug page template is bloated, given that two of the cells have the nowrap property on them. Consequently, some longer summary lines take up several lines at typical window widths, while being squashed between two cells whose contents are constrained to take up a single line. Three possible ways to deal with it: - Shorten the text on the left from "The D Programming Language Issue Tracking System". Mozilla's own bugzilla manages with something shorter. So can we. - Use a few <br>s to split the standard header text across lines. - Edit global.css to remove the two relevant instances of white-space: nowrap;
