Description WhatamIdoing 2014-05-07 20:47:39 UTC
Intention:
Paste some plain text.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type a few paragraphs of plain text.  I typed mine into an Apple Mail message with rich text turned off.  My text was:

I get to play with lists.
I like to play with lists.

I wonder if this will do what I want.

What I want is for this not to be in a list.


2. Open VisualEditor.

3. Copy and paste the plain text into VisualEditor.


Actual Results:  
Instead of getting this:

I get to play with lists.
I like to play with lists.

I wonder if this will do what I want.

What I want is for this not to be in a list.


I got this:

I get to play with lists.
I like to play with lists.


I wonder if this will do what I want.


What I want is for this not to be in a list.


When it saved, there were actually three blank lines between the paragraphs.  This can be seen at http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/w/index.php?diff=92715&oldid=92368


Reproducible: Always

This is not the same as Bug 58283.  Also, I could not reproduce this in Firefox 29.  It happens every time in Safari 6.1.3.

Confirmed in Safari 8.0.
