LJ: comment interface kinda broken?

Is this happening to anybody else? Instead of the nice inline "post comment" interface when commenting on an entry page, I'm now getting a new page with a bunch of whitespace, assorted authentication options (just in case, while logged in to LJ, I want to post from my hypothetical Facebook account), and access to only the post/comment I'm replying to, not the whole page.

I filed a support request but wanted to see how widespread this is. Anybody else seeing this?

Oh, and the posting interface has some new and different bugs for me too: no userpic preview and no auto-complete on tags. I wonder what else is wrong. (I know they're having some issues with the RTF editor, which I do not use.)

Here's a screen shot:


Note the relative size of the scrollbar.

Found your post by looking through the Support board to see who else was having the same problem. It looks like this was happening to some users with the Component style back in April (but I use Component, and I never saw it back then) but now it's happening to a whole bunch of people with different styles.

For what it's worth, I use Firefox 6.0, Ubuntu version, with AdBlockPro and NoScript turned on, and with LiveJournal whitelisted but not Facebook or Twitter.
