1. Edit [[mw:VisualEditor:Sfioj]] in VE 2. Make a selection such as These [words are] very bold or These wor[ds are ve]ry bold 3. Click the "Bold" button on the toolbar The selected text goes extra-bold, in Firefox 21. I should mention that in my case, the font is Arial, which has an extra bold "Arial-Black" variant.
There is a related problem with italic: try the same STR on the second line of the Sfoij page, using the "italic" toolbar button instead of "bold". But I think it is the same issue.
