before starting to write

--------------------------+-----------------------------
 In the Post Editor (Visual mode) if you paste innocently looking text
 (from a website) that contains <div> elements inside, you'll have the auto
 addition of <p> elements to your text broken.

 New lines will be inside <div> elements instead of <p> elements.

 To break the editor:
 1. Select and copy text that is spaced (or just surrounded) with <div>
 elements.
 2. Paste that text into the Post Editor (Visual).
 3. Hit Enter and try to go on with your post.

 Result:
 The text you add, no matter how much you hit enter, will be all surrounded
 with <div>, not with <p>

 Expected Result:
 The text you add behaves as usual and has no tag added, but, of course,
 has automatic <p> tags when shown in your site.

 I can reproduce with trunk. Note that the <div> elements I'm using to test
 have no style or anything.

 See attached HTML test case, you can use the scholarly lyrics in it as a
 test.

 I'm adding some screenshots too.
