[Comandeer]

Under subscript text, the underline appeared only in the gaps between words, as dots in Chrome and as short dashes in Firefox and Safari.

Actually, it's a straight line in both cases, it just looks like this when there is a single space between words; if there is more whitespace, it's more visible. Screen from Firefox:

I would delete the fragment about differences in browsers and keep only the info about the gaps:

Suggested change

Previously, when underline and subscript or superscript formatting were combined, {productname} could place the subscript (`+<sub>+`) or superscript (`+<sup>+`) element inside the underline element. Browsers then drew the underline at the baseline of the surrounding text. Under subscript text, the underline appeared only in the gaps between words, as dots in Chrome and as short dashes in Firefox and Safari. Under superscript text, the underline sat below the raised text instead of directly under it. This output did not match how desktop word processors underline subscript and superscript text.
