 Should this:

 {{{
 332     #forumlist tr td div.nest {
 333             padding-left: 2.5ex;
 334
 }}}
         }

 actually be this:

 {{{
 332     #forumlist tr td div.nest {
 333             padding-left: 2.5em;
 334     }
 }}}

Comment:

 Moving the actual bug over to #741.  This ticket can discuss the stylistic
 choice of ex v. em.
