Comment:

 In Settings - Writing there is an option to correct invalidly nested
 markup in XHTML. I can verify the problem as long as this option is on. No
 problem when this option is turned off.

 I have learned that (jn XHTML) all list elements should be li elements,
 including nested lists itself. TinyMCE makes the nested list a just an ul
 element, missing the surrounding li. WordPress seems to detect illegal
 nesting and tries to correct it. The result is a broken nested list.

 I tried creating a correctly nested list in the HTML editor, with the
 "correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically" option on. No problem.

 I suggest changing the ticket description to address either TinyMCE
 producing invalid nested list markup or the "correct invalidly nested
 XHTML automatically" function.
