It seems since a couple versions ago, Firefox has an annoying auto zoom issue. Anytime you click inside any text box/space that allows you to type, Firefox automatically zooms the screen in.....but half the time it either zooms way TOO CLOSE or or it actually zooms out too far. When i'm trying to edit some spelling errors, this can be quite bothersome as the cursor does not always like to go where you put it. So i'm constantly zooming in/out to adjust the screen properly so I can correctly type ..or so I can precisely place the cursor... then it zooms again the moment I set the cursor again. I think there is a setting to disable this zoom behavior in the about:config ... but disabling it has no effect.

Also, what's up with the cursor behavior? I touch a spot to set it, suddenly it bouces back to where I had it before. It takes two or three tries sometimes to get it to STAY. Ver. 21. On Htc Rezound (4.0.3 stock)
