Question

This one looks like a text wrap bug in webkit, or did i miss something?

DOM:

<div>
  <p>
    <img src="http://static.jsbin.com/images/favicon.png">
    no sea takimata sanctus estestest Lorem ...
  </p>
</div>

CSS:

div {
  width: 200px;
}

p {
 margin-right: 32px;
 padding-left: 30px;
}

img {
 float: left;
 margin-left: -30px;
}

I wouldn’t say this is a bug, as you pointed out: it behaves equally in WebKit browsers. Otherwise we’d have to classify every single difference between Browser engines as bugs.

Though there are people who already reported a similar problem to Webkit.org: http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63074

But this is not just limited to paragraphs, same behaviour can be also found in lists and headers.

See example: http://jsbin.com/uzozus/1/edit

An explanation for this behaviour in Webkit browsers is:

If a negative margin is applied opposite a float, it creates a void
leading to the overlapping of content.

Let’s apply this to your example: your image width is 16px by 16px so in order to equalise this to the negative margin of 30px we have to add 14px horizontally

  img {
    float: left;
    margin-left: -30px;
    padding:5px 14px 0 0;
  }
