Comment:

 In my opinion this is a separate issue from #40951.

 It is associated with running wpautop() against the content to generate
 breaks.

 In my scenario the text widget contains a simple shortcode:

 {{{
 [add_to_cart id=101]
 }}}

 Once the shortcode has been expanded the HTML gets mangled by wpautop and
 the resulting output is incorrectly styled.

 Using the add-paragraphs-option-to-text-widget plugin, which re-introduces
 the capability of setting the  `filter` field to false, gives the desired
 results.
