I stumbled over the same old problem again and for I didn't find a bug report
for it, I set one up eventually...

I am using the "<HTML> source" editor in composer sometimes to rearrange web pages.

The following input shows the problem:
<p><b>This paragraph should be in bold type and I don't close the tag
properly.<b></p>
<p>This paragraph is in normal type and shall stay so</p>

Changing to "Normal" editor both paragraphs are bold.  Changing back to "<HTML>
source" editor shows this:

<p><b>This paragraph should be in bold type and I don't close the tag
properly.</b></p>
<p><b><b>This paragraph is in normal type and shall stay so</b></b></p>

While the first paragraph gets fixed properly, the second gets messed up
thouroughly.

I can't even follow the process to give this result.

Note that this is likely the result of the residual style fixups our parser
performs...
