There are two arrays in kses.php that list the allowed tags for
wp_filter_kses and wp_filter_post_kses. I would add the p element to
the $allowedtags array. Actually it is there but commented out. I
don't know why.

Plugins can modify those global arrays. It is also possible to use
wp_kses() to supply your own set of allowed tags. All in kses.php.
