Comment:

 Why wontfix? We both agree that this is related to wpautop. But why should
 wpautop not get fixed accordingly? It's not that complicated... filtering
 the content with something like this in a while loop before calling
 wpautop would do the trick:

 {{{
 $pee = preg_replace("/(<[^>]+?)\n+/", "$1 ", $pee);
 }}}

 It could be run on ajax calls and before saving the post, rather than on
 every page load.

 The fact of the matter is, fixing this bug would spare countless headaches
 for users who end up relying on html editors to format more complicated
 posts.
