If you follow the steps above and then turn off HTTPS Everywhere, the page layout returns to normal.

And I confirmed that if you open another browser (I used Chrome) and install HTTPS Everywhere this page breaks as well. As soon as you disable it, everything works fine. It appears they have special rulesets you can apply to specific sites for it to work properly. So, I don't think it is really the shields in general that are the cause of the problem, but rather specifically HTTPS Everywhere.

Opened an issue upstream at https everywhere 馃憤

not able to reproduce in beta
