 When the 2013 is active, the following style from it's stylesheet is
 loaded on the add new and edit posts pages:
 .mceContentBody { max-width: 604px; }

 What this causes is a really odd experience as depicted here in Visual
 mode:

 I'm expecting to be able to type all the way to the other side of the box,
 and due to that rule, I can't do that.

 Further, this experience is opposite of the text mode, where the CSS rule
 doesn't apply, and the text spans the entire size of the input box:
 http://d.pr/i/oive

 Is there a particular UI reason for limiting input to only part of the
 post content field?
