Comment(by markjaquith):

 This happens because {{{the_editor()}}} is adding {{{wp_richedit_pre}}} as
 a filter on {{{the_editor_content}}}. Because the user is "stuck" in
 Visual mode, it formats the content the way TinyMCE wants it... with
 paragraph tags.

 One possible fix would be to load the TinyMCE version of the content up in
 a hidden textarea, load the regular text in the real textarea, and then
 attempt to use JS to copy the TinyMCE version over to the real textarea.
 Without JS, this would fail, and they'd keep the real content.

 For users with JS, this may cause a flicker as that swap takes place. And
 we may need to use JS to keep them from trying to edit the content before
 this operation has taken place.
