In addition to this there is a width placed on every input, frontend and backend. This should be removed and only specifically target Joomla elements where needed. For extensions like ours, Community Builder, this completely alters registration and profile edit displays as well as prevents the element "size" attribute from having any affect. Solution is for us to add CSS to reset it back to auto, but developers shouldn't have to do this for their extensions. Basically the new template is too aggressive.
