This also affects the steps taking away entries from the candidates based on width and height.

Spec currently says:

> If there are any entries in candidates that have an associated width
> that is greater than max width, then remove them, unless that would
> remove all the entries, in which case remove only the entries whose
> associated width is greater than the smallest such width.

I believe it should say:

> If there are any entries in candidates that have an associated width
> that is equal to or less than max width, then remove them, unless that would
> remove all the entries, in which case remove only the entries whose
> associated width is greater than the smallest such width.

And equally for height.

This bug was cloned to create bug 18171 as part of operation convergence.

Can you check the spec again and see if it's ok now? I tweaked this part a few weeks ago and I think it's working as intended now.
