I'm no CSS expert, so I'm unable to comment on your patch at the
moment. Matthieu: can you have a look and comment on Jason's approach at
fixing #764178.

I've a separate comment though:

Your commit message essentially restates the bug report, rather than
explaining how the corresponding change fixes it. The commit message
should really do the latter, rather than the former.

Particularly in this case, I see no obvious reason why changing the
right padding of codetable (an horizontal spacing matter) would fix the
bug (which seems to be a vertical spacing matter). I'm sure it *does*
fix the bug, but the commit should explain why it does so, so that even
CSS illiterates as myself could understand the rationale :-)

Jason: do you think you can update your patch to do so?

Many thanks in advance,
Cheers.
