Hey DU

Here are my settings:

Reformat HTML source

Can't be a duplicate of bug #205946 as stated in the status whiteboard since
that bug refer to <p> & texts, nothing is mentioned about <table> and the source
code from the patch deal with <p> & texts.

It could be a duplicate of bug #240933 as stated in the status whiteboard but I
prefer to be on the side of caution by adding the dependance instead because bug
#240933 is becoming a bug tracker of some sort...

Status Whiteboard --> (clearing it out comments)

Status --> NEW

Is the <br> issue in bug #282782 related to this bug somehow?  Can't tell
without any further investigation on this...

240933 is also about the plain-text editor, so it's unclear how it applies to this bug.

As for the relation to 205946, see Boris's bug 334258 comment 5.
