 Introduced in #47477.

 The change that caused this is the overriding of line-height and adding
 min-height to all "single-line" form elements:

 {{{
 input[type="text"],
 input[type="password"],
 input[type="date"],
 input[type="datetime"],
 input[type="datetime-local"],
 input[type="email"],
 input[type="month"],
 input[type="number"],
 input[type="search"],
 input[type="tel"],
 input[type="time"],
 input[type="url"],
 input[type="week"] {
         padding: 0 8px;
         /* inherits font size 14px */
         line-height: 2; /* 28px */
         /* Only necessary for IE11 */
         min-height: 30px;
 }
 }}}

 This causes problems in many plugins and in some external packages like
 the UI in the classic editor/TinyMCE.
