      Ages ago, I implemented MDL-32359, which was a small, but quite important usability win.

      Then tonight, many time on Moodle.org, I found that I had marked a forum thread read, when I was trying to click the link to go to the first unread post.

      I think this was broken by MDL-57093, which did not in itself introduce the stupid padding: 0 rule that is to blame. That came from MDL-42711. The problem with MDL-57093 is that it changed the selectors to be less specific, so the wrong style rule in MDL-42711 suddenly took effect.

      Anyway, there is now an annoying usability bug. Please can someone fix it.
