 '''WARNING'''
 {{{
 Related to WP 2.2.2 but this version number could not be selected while

 Maybe a classic defect in WP since ages but this is a very specific thing
 in the process applied on Page and Post Source.

 '''source:'''

 {{{
 <label>...</label>
 <input ... />
 }}}

 is the same in '''output html source'''.

 '''source:'''

 {{{
 <label>...</label><input ... />
 }}}

 differs in '''output html source:'''

 {{{
 <label>...</label>
 <br/>
 <input ... />
 }}}


 this is nothing in specific maybe but compare it with a combination of
 <label> and <textarea>. there it is the other way round:

 '''source:'''

 {{{
 <label>...</label>
 <textarea> ... </textare>

 }}}

 will become in '''output html source:'''

 {{{
 <label>...</label>
 <br/>
 <textarea> ... </textare>
 }}}


 and '''source:'''

 {{{
 <label>...</label><textarea> ... </textare>
 }}}

 is the same in '''output html source'''.

 so you can see that it is exactly the other way round. this is an
 inconsitency that leads to confusion for Authros and Developers.
