Visual editor damages edited text

[spoko_ws]

I've written a page in internal HTML editor. When I update the page, it appears with some additional characters taken from the inside of the message. I can not force it to save exactly what I write inside, no matter how often I update the page. I'm including the whole page, such that you can reproduce the problem.

The page, which I cannot save clearly into database

It seems your external HTML doesn't conform to the requirement neither for the visual editor nor for the HTML editor.

Scratch that, think I misread the ticket. The attached html code is taken from the HTML editor and seems to show properly in the visual editor (except one irregularity where a nested table pushes the content of other cells lower, but that depends on the styling).

Can you show what characters shouldn't be there? Include screenshot(s) if needed.

Tested in 3.5 with Twenty Twelve. Couldn't see any additional characters. Visual, Text and preview looks the same.
