Comment (by wolfhoundjesse):
This behavior is caused because the elements are completely separate from
each other, although they appear seamless when together. The post status
is in a table outside of TinyMCE. Now that the editor expands as content
exceeds the textarea, the TinyMCE statusbar is pushed down with the
content while the post status never travels beyond the bottom of the
viewport.
A few solutions that will maintain familiarity (none of which are pretty):
1. Move the post status into the TinyMCE where it doesn't belong.
2. Hack up editor.css (editor.min.css) to reposition the TinyMCE
statusbar.
* Position it at the bottom, fixed somewhere above the post status which
is contained in an element without an explicit height. Don't forget to
enable it to change from ''fixed position'' to ''relative position'' as
the editor pulls away from the viewport.
* Position it underneath the TinyMCE buttons. Some of the above issues
will apply.
* Change the order in which the element is generated (the ID is mceu-34
on my installation) so that it can be reordered at the top. Yuck.
3. Throw it away (you've seen the ruckus in the forums).
4. Put the editor back the way it was (I love the ''just write'' idea, so
this isn't even an option in my mind).
What else?
