Yes, but why is it positioned there?  That seems wrong to me per the 
letter of the spec.

Yes, but its "same position" should be between the "inside1" and 
"inside2" text (and in particular vertically aligned with them).  I 
assume all implementations are taking some sort of shortcut here that 
ends up with them mispositioning it....
