Public bug reported:

Using google-chrome-stable from Google's upstream repositories, numbers
in the Ubuntu font are rendered strangely. When part of a word, they are
rendered full-height (as I would expect) but when standalone (or part of
a string of numbers), they are rendered at lower-case height. This is
particularly noticeable when typing in to a text box that renders in
Ubuntu, because already-typed numbers can change in height.

To reproduce, visit http://font.ubuntu.com in Google Chrome and type the
string "5". You will see a small 5. If you append "s" to the string
(i.e. "5s") you will see the "5" change in height.

I'm filing this bug against Ubuntu despite it being in an unpackaged
browser because I've tested using exactly the same version of Chrome in
wily and xenial (49.0.2623.75), and the behaviour only exhibits itself
in xenial.
