 hr tags get wrapped inside p.../p tags. Since hr is a block level element,
 and p can only contain inline elements, this causes a validation error.
 It's not enough to throw most browsers into quirks mode, but still,
 wpautop should be modified to recognize hr as a block level element.

 I believe that adding hr to the $allblocks list in wpautop would be enough
 to solve the issue, but I'm not certain.
