Comment(by mzizka):

 I am working on a patch for this. I am at the point where I have the
 texturizing fixed, and am now working on wpautop (which is totally
 dysfunctional with any but the most basic use of shortcodes).

 Excluding the shortcode content is fairly complex work and will likely
 slow things down a bit.

 This leads me to wonder why these filters are applied '''before''' the
 shortcodes are handled. There could be security reasons -- I admit I
 didn't really dig into this. From my point of view, it seems we are making
 things needlessly complicated. Shortcodes are meant to alter or produce
 output, and it is that on that output that filters should be applied --
 not on input. No?
