Comment (by ericlewis):

 In attachment:30986.5.diff, remove the testing and short-circuit
 `wpautop()` with an invocation of the class.

 Add better support for inline elements and the `$br` parameter.

 Interestingly, DOMDocument seems to sanitize the `href` attribute in `<a>`
 tags, so I added placeholder support so `$` and `%3` passes through.

 Will continue debugging unit tests until there's functional parity.
