Comment (by bgom9021@…):

 I can't help but think that if you do what I am doing exactly as I am
 doing it, you should see the same result. We've already established that
 we're all using a clean install of WP 3.5 with no changes to the installed
 settings.

 Create a Post. In the Visual editor, enter:

         Heading

         Paragraph text

 Select line 1 and set format to Heading 2.
 Select all text and link to the Sample Page.

 Now switch to the text editor. If you have done what I did exactly as I've
 described it, you should indeed see what I see as follows.

         <a title="Sample Page"
 href="http://test.smallbusinesswebspot.com/?page_id=2">
         <h2>Heading</h2>

         Paragraph text

         &nbsp;

         </a>

 Now switch back to the Visual editor. You should now see that none of the
 text is underlined indicating that the anchor has been removed completely.

 Now switch to the Text editor again. You should see this.

         &nbsp;

         <h2>Heading</h2>

         Paragraph text

         &nbsp;

         &nbsp;

 There is no anchor.

 Next steps. If you do not see this then we must focus on why we are seeing
 something different. I suggest something like the following steps.

 1. You could log into my test WP to confirm my observations.
 2. We could then focus on identifying what is different between our
 environments.

 Let me know what you think... and thank you for your kind attention and
 patience.
