66841 - <br> inserted in <pre> for "enter" & opened files

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect)

Description

[fantasai]

Overview:

  A) Pressing return in a preformatted block inserts <br> instead of a newline.
  B) Opening an existing html document with a preformatted block adds additional
     <br>s to the markup, creating a mess.

Steps to Reproduce:

 A)
  1. Open a new document in Composer.
  2. Select Preformat from the paragraph/heading menu.
  3. Type 'some text' and press enter. Type 'something else'.
  4. Look at source view.

 B)
  1. Open testcase (to be attached shortly) in Composer.
  2. Save document.
  3. View in text editor.

Expected Results:

A)
  The source view should show 
<pre>some text
something else

B)
  The source should show the exact same thing as before.

Actual Results:

A)
  The source view shows:
<pre> some text <br> something else

B)
  The source has changed significantly. Viewing the HTML document
  reveals that it has been double spaced.

A is not a bug.  B is not a bug insofar as it is inserting <br>.  The other 
aspects of B are covered under existing whitespace bugs.  closing invalid.

AFAICT, the whole of B is about inserting <br>--what are the other aspects 
you're talking about, and under which bugs are they covered?
