384141 - Text styling is not maintained when starting a list

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect, P5)

Description

[Mathieu Fenniak]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20061201 Firefox/2.0.0.4 (Ubuntu-feisty)
Build Identifier: 

When starting a list, existing text styling is not maintained.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the Mozilla Rich Text Editing Demo (http://www.mozilla.org/editor/midasdemo/) 
2. Click the "Bold" toolbar button, and type some text, and then hit enter to begin a new line.
3. Click the ordered list or unordered list button to begin a list, and start typing.
Actual Results:  
Although the text typed in step 2 is bold, the text typed in step 3 (inside the list) is not bold.

Expected Results:  
The text typed in step 3 should have the same formatting as the text typed in step 2.

Somewhat related to bug 307827, which demonstrates that formatting is not always maintained when starting a new list item within a list.

Bulk-downgrade of unassigned, >=5 years untouched DOM/Storage bugs' priority.

If you have reason to believe this is wrong (especially for the severity), please write a comment and ni :jstutte.
