URL shows a testcase where you can't scroll to reveal left overflow on RTL pages.

Huh? <html style="direction:ltr">.

Meaning, that is not a right-to-left page (direction doesn’t propagate from <body> if it’s explicitly set on <html>).

Updated URL.

Caused by bug 55077?

Simon, the updated URL still has <html style="direction:ltr;">.
Simon Fraser (smfr)
Fixed.

Does seem like a duplicate of bug 55077.

i don't know which is correct but using the old URL (with <html style="direction:ltr"> but RTL body), FF showed a horizontal scrollbar while WebKit did not.

The direction propagation in Webkit (when dir is set in root) is different from that in Firefox.
In Webkit "Direction and writing-mode should propagate from the <body> to the <html> to the ICB as long as the <html> hasn't explicitly set the direction or writing-mode." (from dhyatt),
while Firefox always propagate the direction from the <body> to the initial containing block even if the <html> has explicitly set the direction.
Please refer to description and comment #9 in bug 48157.

please reopen if I am wrong.

Using chrome linux, I see the same: horizontal scrollbar presents. but scroll does not reveal left overflow before r80622, and it reveals left overflow after r80622.

OK cool.
