 Hi guys! I've got latest WP installation (3.0.3) and found strange bug in
 posts parser.

 Create article with following HTML:

 {{{
 <div class="wassup"><a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a></div>
 }}}

 Browser will get:

 {{{
 <div class="wassup"><a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a></div>
 }}}

 All seems to be fine! Now get rid of unnecessary div.

 Create article with following HTML:

 {{{
 <a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a>
 }}}

 Browser will get:

 {{{
 <p><a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a></p>
 }}}

 Dunno why there is extra <p> but who cares. All seems to be OK.

 Create article with following HTML:

 {{{
 <figure><a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a>
 </figure>
 }}}

 Browser will get:

 {{{
 <figure><a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a><br />
 </figure>
 }}}

 Now isn't that cool? But check what is even cooler!

 Create article with following HTML:

 {{{
 <figure><a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a>
 <figcaption>NO IT'S BUGGY AS HELL</figcaption>
 </figure>
 }}}

 Browser will get:
 {{{
 <figure><a href="#">WP IZ ASSUM</a></p>
 <figcaption>NO IT’S BUGGY AS HELL</figcaption>
 </figure>
 }}}

 Wow! Say hello to invalid markup and rendering problems! Auto-closing of
 tags turned off. No matter of the settings I still get this nice messed up
 html. WYSIWYG turned off also.

Comment:

 The problem is that wpautop() doesn't know how to treat the new HTML5 tags
 yet.
