This Google search (for the last year) site:<a href="http://themes.svn.wordpress.org">themes.svn.wordpress.org</a> "remove_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' )" brings up 5 results.<br><br>I haven't really looked closely to see what all the repercussions of doing it would be, but at a glance I am not seeing it as being wrong given what the theme is trying to do. For example, PageLines is simply moving the two functions to a different priority sequence (from the default 10 to 12) to "Prevent AUTOP inside of shortcodes"<br>
<br>... and the Tenacity theme appears to be removing these formatting functions in favor of their own. <br><br>Perhaps there is a better method? I'm sure this could be opened for discussion but as I see from these recent examples, it appears (at least with these two randomly picked from the search results) to be done in a conscientious manner.<br>

Yeah, it seems strange. There's a tutorial here: <a href="http://tutorials.mysitemyway.com/adding-column-layout-shortcodes-to-a-wordpress-theme/#highlighter_671922" target="_blank">http://tutorials.mysitemyway.com/adding-column-layout-shortcodes-to-a-wordpress-theme/#highlighter_671922</a> which seems to claim that the <p></p> and <br /> tags mess with column shortcodes, or something like that?<div class="HOEnZb">

I can't really think of a reason a theme should be doing either of
those things at all. There might be some legitimate uses (from a
theme perspective) but none come to mind at the moment.<div><div><br>

<div>There's been some discussion today on Twitter, and a blog
post I wrote ( <a href="http://japh.co/NSXyTr" target="_blank">http://japh.co/NSXyTr</a> ),
about themes that run code like:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">remove_filter(
'the_content', 'wpautop' );</blockquote>

'the_content', 'wptexturize' );</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And also implementing a [raw][/raw] shortcode like <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-remove-wpautop-wptexturize-with-a-shortcode" target="_blank">http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-remove-wpautop-wptexturize-with-a-shortcode</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Could we add checks for these things into Theme-Check? And
would it be sensible to do so?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
