Upgrade from 5.5.2.1 to 5.6.0.x breaks page layout

Permalink
When I upgrade my site from 5.5.2.1 to 5.6.0 or 5.6.0.1 or 5.6.0.2 the container for the page gets narrower and the right column shifts down (see attached screen shots). What is strange is that this problem only appears in Edit mode! When I log out, the layout returns to normal.

This is a CSS layout and no matter how I change the width values, the container will not budge. I have done the same layout as traditional HTML and in 5.5.2.1 and everything has worked fine. For now I will stick with 5.5.2.1, since I have already spent too much time this upgrade, but I would like to use 5.6.0.2 in the future. Any ideas?

My guess is that the dashed border that is put around editable regions is causing the right column to be forced down. Not sure why the upgrade would have uncovered the issue, but there are ways to have different css while in edit mode. 

<?php  if ($c->isEditMode()) { ?>
      <div style="min-height: 80px">
      <?php  } ?>


The above is used in the default concrete theme to shift content down - using a similar technique, maybe you could increase the width of .container to 1010px or so to accommodate the borders....

Any other ideas out there?
