#33805: Blockquotes that directly wrap lists quote each list item

 Priority:  normal          |  Milestone:  Awaiting Review

 In the visual editor, the blockquote TinyMCE button malfunctions when the
 highlighted text ends in, begins with, or fully consists of an unordered
 or ordered list. Example case:

 [[Image(https://cldup.com/y2LdhkEQcA.png)]]

 The source ends up looking like this, in that case:

 {{{
 <blockquote>some text outside the list:</blockquote>
 <ul>
         <li>
 <blockquote>some item</blockquote>
 </li>
         <li>
 <blockquote>some item</blockquote>
 </li>
         <li>
 <blockquote>some item</blockquote>
 </li>
         <li>
 <blockquote>some item</blockquote>
 </li>
 </ul>

 }}}

 I can't really think of a scenario where quoting each list item separately
 would be preferred.

 To get around it, I usually type something on a new line, blockquote it
 with both ends as regular text, then delete the unnecessary bits, but
 that's not a preferable experience. I've been experiencing this for a
 while, but kept forgetting to report it.
