See http://parsoid.wmflabs.org/_rt/mw/VisualEditor:Test , and note how "many of your questions" and "Note: The Edit button" are on the same line, while they're really supposed to be in separate paragraphs.

Basically, what's going on here is that the wikitext:

Foo
<!-- Comment -->

Bar

is turned into this HTML:
<p>Foo
<!-- Comment -->

Bar</p>

while really the correct output is this:
<p>Foo</p>
<!-- Comment -->

<p>Bar</p>

This results in the page rendering as "Foo Bar" rather than "Foo [paragraph break] Bar", and of course that means the way the editor renders it and lets you edit it is wrong as well.

What's maybe even scarier is that this round-trips "correctly", i.e. the wikitext->HTML conversion is wrong, but then the HTML->wikitext conversion is wrong in exactly the reverse way, and that causes it to round-trip. I suspect this is because of the presence of the newlines in the HTML, but that's also a bug: ideally the serializer shouldn't convert a single <p> to wikitext representing multiple paragraphs, regardless of newlines (this is very unlikely to be a practical problem for VE though).
