 1. Start composing a new post.
 2. Enter some text in the visual editor.
 3. Switch to the code editor with ctrl-alt-shift-m.
 4. Make a change that should be visible in the visual editor, e.g., wrap
 `<sup>...</sup>` around some text to make it superscript.
 5. Switch back to the visual editor with ctrl-alt-shift-m.
 6. Observe that your change is not visible in the visual editor.
 7. Click Save Draft.
 8. Switch back to the code editor with ctrl-alt-shift-m.
 9. Observe that your change is gone.

 Ugh.

 Marking this "major" severity because it's a data loss bug.
