[Laszlo-dev] LPP-8477, font changes when switching from single line to multiline in IE7

[Max Carlson]

Yes, I think it needs to copy the necessary fontstyles over.  Right now 
LzInputTextSprite#setMultiline() only preserves the text contents, 
scrollLeft and scrollTop.  The necessary styles should be preserved in:
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontStyle = 'normal';
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontWeight = 'normal';
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontSize = '11px';
LzInputTextSprite.prototype.__fontFamily = 'Verdana,Vera,sans-serif';

I'd avoid copying the entire CSS style - that's pretty risky.
