</div>

This is now fixed per:

[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/9197feefb867fa1a028ae68b6ddc930119689600](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/9197feefb867fa1a028ae68b6ddc930119689600)

The non-jittery-ness will be present on all new posts or **rebaked** posts as we needed to make some internal html changes. (note that the post processor that downloads images must run first which may take a minute or 2)

The non-jittery-ness works fine in all modern browsers (edge,firefox,chrome) but old behavior remains in IE.

It is implemented using serious levels of voodoo and CSS vars described here:
