 I'm not sure if this counts as a bug or not, but it's a definite change
 between 3.4.2 and 3.5.

 '''Steps to Reproduce:'''
 1. Create a new Microsoft Word document
 2. Type some text into the Word document and make it bold
 3. Create a new post/page in WordPress, making sure that the Visual Editor
 is selected
 4. Copy the bold text from Word and use the Paste From Word button to
 paste it into the new post/page you're creating
 5. Switch to the HTML editor and look at the code

 '''Expected Result:'''
 1. The background HTML code for the bold text should be wrapped in
 `<strong></strong>`

 '''Actual Result:'''
 1. The background HTML code for the bold text is actually wrapped in
 `<b></b>`

 Tested in WordPress 3.5 using Chrome 23.0.1271.97 m on Windows 8 x64. I'll
 test in other browsers later.

 I tested in a WordPress 3.4.2 installation in the same setup, and those
 same steps produced text that was wrapped in `<strong></strong>`
 correctly.
