Editor deletes space from list item containing <a> and <pre>

[jikamens]

Compose a new page or post. In the visual editor, switch to HTML editing mode and enter exactly this text:

<ul>
<li><a href="http://wordpress.org/">foo</a> bar
<pre>baz</pre></li>
</ul>

When you switch back to visual mode, the space before the word "bar" will be gone. No matter how many times you add it back, whether you add it in HTML or visual mode, when you save the page or post, the space will be deleted.

That should be fixed with WordPress 3.5. Could reproduce it in 3.4.2 but not in 3.5.

I think there was also a ticket, but can't find it now.

Confirmed as fixed in 3.5/TinyMCE 3.5.8+.
