This is perfectly legal behaviour. Browsers are allowed to set their own
styles. Layout issues like this are never bugs, because HTML is a NOT
a page layout language. (However, if CSSn style sheets are implemented,
there would need to be changes as the current behaviour doesn't nest
inner boxes relative to their containing boxes, or at least didn't in
2.7.2.)

I think it would be more productive to implement the CSS2 layout model than
to tweak the current layout code.
