[Bug 1165378] [NEW] Monospace fonts are not working with QtWebKit 2.3.0

[Dmitry Shachnev]

Public bug reported:

In Raring any QtWebKit-based browser displays "font-family: monospace"
blocks using non-monospace font. I can reproduce this using pure 13.04
live image and Qupzilla.

A screenshot: https://ubuntuone.com/6JmFjyEcqrxkSZ8CDS31N1.

A minimal test case: https://gist.github.com/mitya57/5312601.

Importance High because it breaks a lot of web sites and other apps,
such as ReText.

This didn't happen with Quantal's QtWebKit 2.2 and does not happen with
Qt 5.

** Affects: qtwebkit-source (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: Triaged
