Description
When the editor is loaded, browser is forced to recalculate style because of
getComputedStylecall insetElementIndent.Previously, even when indent was 0,
getComputedStylewas called but last style change was settingpadding-inline-startto ''. With this change, I am avoiding callinggetComputedStylefor the case where indent is 0 and returning early.Layout thrash: https://web.dev/articles/avoid-large-complex-layouts-and-layout-thrashing
Closes #
Test plan
