Comment (by pento):

 [attachment:38656.3.diff] adds code comments, and some more complex tests.

 There's probably value in adding some intelligence to the closing HTML tag
 detection, so we can handle some basic invalid HTML. For example, a
 browser will automatically correct `<div><span>foo</div>`, and treat it as
 `<div><span>foo</span></div>`, but `wpautop()` will get `$peeable` out of
 sync, causing problems.
