Hi, I am translating ru:Daimler Motorkutsche, which has a large infobox with no Dutch equivalent. That (or something else) makes my text constantly jump up and down. Whenever I touch the arrow keys, insert a link, touch backspace or do whatever with the keyboard except typing, the infobox gets displayed, rendering my own text out of view.

What can I do to tame this nausea inducing behavior and what are the developers going to do to cure this bizarre Fawlty Text?

Btw, my computer is a 17'' chromebook with all the updates.

Update: I found a workaround: after trying in vain to type text beside the Russian box, I noticed the 'insert an alinea' prompt. Click! Then I filled the space with random text. This has normalised the behavior.

Still wondering why years of development didn't cure this ludicrous fault.
