#23280: TinyMCE issue with table wrapped with shortcode

-----------------------------+--------------------------
 TinyMCE will generate unbalanced <p> tags when a table is included as the
 content of a wrapping style shortcode. In this example, assume a shortcode
 called [div] ... [/div] that simply brackets the content with a <div> ...
 </div>.

 This is an example as it would be in the editor's Text view (and it works
 if you switch back and forth to Visual.):

 -----------------
 {{{
 There will be a table following.

 [div]
 <table>
 <tbody>
 <tr>
 <td>Simple table</td>
 </tr>
 </tbody>
 </table>
 [/div]

 Next line is here.
 }}}
 ------------------------
 The HTML output generated is this:

 {{{
 <p>There will be a table following.</p>
 <div></p>
 <table>
 <tbody>
 <tr>
 <td>Simple table</td>
 </tr>
 </tbody>
 </table>
 <p></div>
 <p>Next line is here.</p>
 }}}
 ------------
 The shortcode is very simple - just a demo. It returns simply:

 {{{
 return '<div>' . do_shortcode($text) . '</div>';
 }}}

 Doesn't seem to matter with or without the do_shortcode() call.
 --------

 So note the excess </p> after the added starting <div>, and the extra <p>
 before the </div> from the shortcode. Seems to happen only with a wrapping
 style shortcode, and I think only with tables.
