If anything this is a local CSS issue, not a parser issue. What exactly would you like to see fixed here?

That's exactly the thing - it's not local - all of the templates involved are in their default configurations, meaning that the problem recurs in every article where you have a similar situation. Take for example [[Runtime system]]: You want 0 space between the two top templates, but some space between them and the sidebar. That's a common scenario, right? But instead of it happening automatically, you have to solve it locally for every article or every template (as indeed we did), introducing new problems. What I would like to see is logic that automatically inserts whitespace, padding or whatever between kinds of templates that are not meant to crowd together, ever.

By "local" I mean "specific to a wiki". The whole infobox template/CSS setup is purely local to English Wikipedia, and is not part of the MediaWiki software.

If you would like, you can post at [[MediaWiki talk:Common.css]] or contact [[User:Edokter]].

It is not possible for MediaWiki to account for any template and its accompanying CSS that may be present on a project. These kind of issues should be fixed at the project-level, as that is where the 'problems' are created.
