HTML tool in rich editor wreaks havoc on some tables

[rodm]

Enter a simple table with empty cells into the html editor:

<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>

click on the HTML tool in the tool bar. Don't edit anything, but click Update.

Click on the HTML tool again. Some neat new markup gets inserted!

<table border="0"><br />
<tr><br />
<td></td><br />
<td></td><br />
</tr><br />
</table>

Now save the page, and come back and edit it. Click on the HTML tool again. Even more good stuff!

<table border="0">
<tr>
<td>&amp;nbsp;</td>
<td>&amp;nbsp;</td>
</tr>
</table>

Pending a little bit more testing, I have this working well on my own system. Had to handle a bug or two in TinyMCE ;-)

I added some filtering and source formatting for tables. Table code is now fairly well indented and no longer has tags where they don't belong, as far as I've tested.

Incidentally, this also upgrades TinyMCE to 2.0 Final, which was released two days ago, and uses the source code instead of the compacted javascript. Not many changes in the code, but enough to make it worthwhile, including bug fixes by yours truly. Opera 9 is supposed to work :-D though I haven't tried it.

wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce_src.js and wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/editor_plugin_src.js can be deleted if they haven't already.
