Monospaced fonts are not monospaced anymore and vice-versa

Reported by redsan...@gmail.com, Jul 2

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3472.3 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
https://codemirror.net/demo/simplemode.html

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open a CodeMirror instance in new Chrome and old Chrome (or Firefox), for example the url above.

Alternatively, to see the inverse (Proportional fonts rendered as Monospace) check out the book title grid example in this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ecropolis/b9r67e1L/

What is the expected behavior?
Code rendered as monospaced characters for readability.
See first screenshot.

What went wrong?
Code rendered as proportionally spaced characters.
See second screenshot.

Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? Yes 68

Does this work in other browsers? N/A

Chrome version: 69.0.3472.3  Channel: dev
OS Version: 4.13.0-32-generic #35~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP
Flash Version: 

I initially wondered if this issue was the same as #857511. However, this issue goes wrong consistently and reproducibly. The other one is not consistent.

Unable to reproduce the issue on ubuntu 17.10, mac 10.13.3 and win-10 using chrome reported version latest canary #69.0.3479.0.

Attached a screen shots of both canary and beta(M-68) for reference.

Following are the steps followed to reproduce the issue.
------------
1. Navigated to url: http://jsfiddle.net/ecropolis/b9r67e1L/
2. Observed that code rendered as monospaced characters for readability as expected.

Note: Same behavior is observed in firefox and M-68 also.

The latest google-chrome-unstable from the Ubuntu 16.04 repo is 69.0.3472.3 so I need to wait until it is deployed there.

> by creating a new profile without any apps and extensions 

Can I do this without removing my default profile? (If so, how?)

Ubuntu 16.04, Chrome Version 69.0.3486.0 (Official Build) dev (64-bit), still have the issue with fonts.

> by creating a new profile without any apps and extensions 
New profile not helps. There is screenshot with Chrome (new profile) and Firefox 61.0.1 (64-bit), that show difference in displaying rfc.

Potentially a duplicate of 857511, please retest after dev reaches 69.0.3494.0.
Latest from Repo is version 69.0.3486.0 (Official Build) dev (64-bit). Have to wait a bit longer.

(Just updated. And 2010 called. They want their horrible rounded sesame street address bar from Apple/iOS back.
I hope there is an option for that. This is not something I'm going to use.)
(Unrelated: chrome://flags -> UI Layout for the browser's top chrome -> Normal)
(It will calm some people (me incl.) down.)

Ontopic: 69.0.3486.0 still exhibits the issue with fonts, but as the previous commenter pointed out, let's wait for the ..3494 version.
For me this issue is fixed in 69.0.3497.12 (Official Build) unknown (64-bit)
