Quote from the Usersguide:
"You can toggle this series on or off using Bold Style from the Layout
menu, or with the keybinding M-c b."
This is incorrect?
Fortunately, I found out that M-c space rids me of the sticky bold.

I tried, but I haven't been successful at reproducing it. In my
experimentations I did however get the following result:
1 - type "font-size"
2 - press left arrow
3 - crash
This is with pre6. I'm able to reproduce this as many times I want. :-)
