Growing textfield in the message composer showing blank lines

[arnfriedgriesert]

Steps to reproduce

1. Where are you starting? What can you see?
   Start writing a new text message in a room.
2. What do you click?
   Composers textfield below the rooms timeline.
3. More steps…
   The user must enter more then 4-5 lines of text.

Outcome

What did you expect?

The textfield increase in size depending of the number of lines.

What happened instead?

The first few lines the textfield grows normally. Then after 4-5 or more lines the textfield size begins to jump. Suddenly below the entered text the user will see a large blank area. It does not fit the entered text size anymore but its much larger. When you delete some words the textfield shrinks to the normal bounding box size. When you enter again some word the big jump in vertical size will happen again.
I saw this behavior very often while using this version even there were cases where the composer seemed to work for large text. But it should be easy to reproduce it.
