Comment (by Mte90):

 So reading the spec https://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/text.html#h-9.3 (I
 think that is the same as HTML5 the W3C validator infact report it as
 error) paragraph cannot contain a table element.

 Reading seems that we open a paragraph, we add a table and the close of
 the table tag close the paragraph.

 This means that we need to fix wpautop and add some tests for that case.
