When I type until I reach the bottom right of the screen and keep going, 
Emacs often types in reverse, producing useless gibberish.

This happens on Win 7 and Debian, even with a blank .emacs file.

Usually I only stumble over this when typing with extremely large font 
size on a 1920x1200 monitor, with 8-12 lines fitting on the screen. But 
it can happen with as many as 20 lines.

Here's a demo video of the behavior on Debian with a blank .emacs
http://youtu.be/CYLD8jO3aPs

Thanks, Trevor

I couldn't reproduce this on a recent (24.5) Emacs, the description is a
bit unclear (I tried increasing the font a few times, then started
typing random letters) and the video is not available.
