Comment:

 (Tested on 3.3-aortic-dissection)

 The PHP version is fixed, but not the JavaScript version (Everyone always
 forgets the poor JavaScript version). Try in HTML Tab:

 {{{
 <select>
         <option>Value</option>
         <option>Value</option>
         <option>Value</option>
         <option>Value</option>
         <option>Value</option>
 </select>
 }}}
 Then switch to Visual and Back. The result is:
 {{{
 <select> <option>Value</option></select>
 <select> <option>Value</option></select>
 <select> <option>Value</option></select>
 <select> <option>Value</option></select>
 <select> <option>Value</option></select>
 }}}

 There are other fixes (I'm sure) that got applied to the php wpautop, but
 not the JavaScript version. Sadly, TinyMCE's reputation might be taking a
 beating over stuff like this ;-)
