Point is, the patches that went into xedit over the past year were mostly
build fixes. Paolo used to maintain it (he also was the author of the lisp
interpreter) but he hasn't contributed anything for two years now. So xedit
is an x app that is more or less shipped as is.
My fear is that if people raise too much hell upstream about it being broken
it will become a more likely drop candidate.
There are numerous much more powerful and better maintained editors around
and and it may not be considered the HTML editor of choice by the vast
majority of web developers.
I certainly don't think the issue you are seeing has not been introduced
recently as there have been no patches going in regarding fonts for quite
a while.
I suggest you use a different editor for html unless you would like to
investigate and fix the issue yourself. I'm sure fixes are welcome upstream.
Cheers,
Egbert.
