Comment (by helgatheviking):

 I've had this problem for years!
 [http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/44993/use-quicktags-toolbar-
 on-any-textarea] I wasn't able to track it down or I might've reported
 it... instead I just thought I was going crazy.

 Now that I've come back to my problem code, I've found a very similar
 issue with the

 {{{

 if ( tinyMCEPreInit.mceInit[ id ] && tinyMCEPreInit.mceInit[ id ].wpautop
 ) {
     txtarea_el.value = t.wpautop( txtarea_el.value );
 }
 }}}

 in `switchEditors()`.  I've gotten around it by using javascript to add my
 settings for my dynamically added textarea to the tinyMCEPreInit.mceInit
 object.

 {{{
 // my_settings can be whatever, but I've cloned them from the #content's
 settings
 var settings = $.extend( {}, my_settings, { selector : "#" + id } );

 // add our copy to the collection in the tinyMCEPreInit object because
 switch editors
 tinyMCEPreInit.mceInit[id] = settings;
 }}}

 So if the quicktags did at least the same as the tinymce `if (
 tinyMCEPreInit.mceInit[ id ] )` we could hack our way around it.

 If there is an `add_Instance(settings)` added for quicktags, it'd be great
 to have that added to tinyMCE as well!

 Changing the offending code to this actually seems to resolve it for me
 (assuming a similar hackish way of adding to the qtInit property):

 {{{
                 if ( qt.instances[id] ) {
                         _domReady( function(){ qt._buttonsInit(); } );
                 }
 }}}
