Overview

When we reduced the base height of TextInputs in T341224, we discovered that TextInputs with type="date" are even taller than non-date TextInputs. Something inside the box model's content adds an extra 2px to the height of the date inputs.

Known issue in Chrome and Safari browsers.

Solutions
