   Does anyone else see this bug?

   After installing WordPress 2.8, I see this bug when using the WYSIWYG editor to copy/paste text that includes text decorations such as underline, italic, and bold.

   Copying this:
   normal text <span style="text-decoration: underline;">underlined text</span> bold text normal text

   Paste becomes:
   underline text

   The paste only pastes the first stretch of decorated text (undecorated) and the rest disappears. This is really a hassle if you cut and paste because you lose everything else you typed.

   However, if the copy includes the carriage return in the line then the paste works.

   I am using Safari 3.2.3 on Mac OS X 10.5.7.

   I am not yet familiar with the bug reporting process and am not sure if this is the right place to discuss it first. I did not find a similar bug report on file or any other discussion thread, but please let me know if you know of an existing one.

   There are several others suffering problems with the editor and many other problems etc. with 2.8 including myself.

   I don't have a solution but I hope they fix it soon.
