Comment:

 doh, wait. I thought this was another ticket.

 it's not a wpautop ticket, or rather it is, but it fixes a genuine bug in
 it. you don't need a unit test for this one. the stuff in the patch is
 done by the latest tinymce already. it's the php version that has a
 problem.

 it merely turns stuff like:

 {{{
 <p
   class="foo">
 }}}

 ... which gets wrecked by wpautop, into:

 {{{
 <p class="foo">
 }}}

 it has been working successfully for over a year on thousands of sites,
 and bugs would have been reported long ago if any were present.

 the while loop stands for: until there is no open tag (<) followed by a
 newline char, turn the newline char into a space.
