Is this the standard "ie ignores height:" compat issue?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is WONTFIX. IE is broken. We can't fix that. The only thing to consider here is if WebKit should support this sort of "ignore height:" functionality in a quirks mode. Hyatt? Hixie?

Obviously regions with an IE monoculture (like china, korea), lack of support for these strange IE quirks does pose an issue for WebKIt adoption.

The problem is we can't really backtrack and add this as a quirk now. We would break too many Web sites. So yeah, this is a WONTFIX. Firefox has the same issue, and IE does the right thing in strict mode. So ultimately these sites just have to update their code.
