I just tried doing a ref through VisEd for the first time. I typed the ref manually, that is, without using a template. VisEd surrounded the whole ref with <nowiki> tags so that the ref was not rendered correctly. Probably I should have used the VisEd buttons for the italics and bolding (I will try that next time), but what about the ISBN number? "ISBN" is a magic word and this should continue to work through VisEd to render the ISBN number as a link.
This is worrying - I can't reproduce this as you describe (the auto-link works fine and is not wrapped in <nowiki>s). Can you give more details? Did you save the page - if so, do you have the diff link? What browser were you using?

If the latter, I think this bug can be simplified to "ISBN 1234567890 should be spotted when avoiding overly-keen <nowiki>ing - is that correct?
That seems to about sum it up. As I said in my initial post, the bold and italics not rendering are probably my own fault.

Is it correct to summarize this as a bug in the serializer where ISBN text is not being nowikied? [subbu@earth lib] echo "<p>ISBN 1234567890</p>" | node parse --html2wt ISBN 1234567890 whereas the expected output should have been: <nowiki>ISBN 1234567890</nowiki>
