Created attachment 81467 [details] TextBox in RTL showing resizing problem In RTL layouts TextBoxes show a resizing corner in the bottom-right corner. Surprisingly, trying to resize the text box in this situation causes the left size to move. Tested in Latest Safari 5.0.3 (6533.19.4) and google-chrome (10.0.648.18 dev and 9.0.597.84 beta).

That is pretty funny, actually. Adding some BiDi experts - I'm not too familiar with how the resize corner works. Do we know if this is a regression or if it's "always" been broken?

This is not a regression nor is it related to bidirectionality. Bottom-right resizing works best when to top-left corner is fixed. Center- and right-alignment as well as other layout constructs make the position of the top-left corner depend on the dimensions.
