Magento2: Styling of <legend> elements break in Chrome 56

[thlassche]

Preconditions

1. Magento version: 2.1.3
2. Chrome 56 (Chrome 55 works fine)

Steps to reproduce

1. Open the admin login page

Expected result

1. A proper styled login form

Actual result

1. 
   
   

Same issue occurs on more forms: e.g. customer register page. The cause of this is the <legend> tag. Replacing this by a <div> tag works fine. Might be a render bug in Chrome 56, but since this is rolling out very soon to a lot of people this might be worth looking into.

@thlassche you're using dev version, that could contains issues. I think issues like this should be reviewer & fixed only in stable versions

[thlassche]

@ihor-sviziev Agreed, however we should make sure that Magento is compatible by the time Chrome 56 is released

It might be not Magento issue, I have faced

issue in Chrome on other sites.

This issue exists in 55 (previously beta), now including stable

This is being tracked over here in the chromium bugtracker: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=670837

Looks like a regression, I don't think Magento will need to fix something and we just need to wait for Chrome to release a new version...

Chrome 55.0.2883.87 was just released which fixes these issues 🎉

This issue can be closed, it was fixed in chrome latest stable, now this issue is not reproducing
