Package: gnome-text-editor
Version: 49.0-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: bugs at kiffie.de

Dear Maintainer,

Starting with version 49 I noticed graphical corruption of the tab- and window-
titles when entering tall characters.
The topmost line of pixels gets cut off and even flickers sometimes.

I attached a video of the issue.

Kind Regards

Karsten
