Comment:

 Good news.  My regexp was more resilient at separating HTML and shortcodes
 on a left-to-right basis than the old one.  We can allow HTML within
 shortcodes.  Shortcodes within shortcodes was the main problem.  As azaozz
 mentioned on #15694, the {{{[}}} and {{{]}}} characters must be encoded as
 HTML entities any time they appear inside of any shortcode.  This is
 almost never accomplished, which is why it's so tricky to separate the
 bugs.

 In miqro-28564.patch:
 * Allow HTML inside of shortcode attributes for wptexturize.
 * Continue to ignore the [ char if it appears in any HTML attribute.
 * Allow the ] char to corrupt any HTML element that appears after a [
 char, as in 3.9.
 * Update related patterns.
 * Update unit tests.
