Replacing blockquote content adds goofy markup

[michael-arestad]

Steps to reproduce:

• New post in Visual mode
• Write a bit of text and make it a blockquote
• after the blockquote, write normal p text and add a link somewhere
• Triple click the blockquote and paste in a new bit of text

Can you give more specific steps to reproduce this? Sound like the problem appears in the last step (pasting)? What exactly did you paste?

@isuelde I copied content from here: ​http://technoccult.net/archives/2013/11/18/prada-revolutionaries/

Specifically, the exact quote in the images above.

To reproduce, you need a blockquote and a normal paragraph. Triple click the blockquote and paste two paragraphs over it. The last paragraph is now in the blockquote and has weird styles.

Happens in 4.1 too. Only happens in webkit as far as I can see.

Note that is a contenteditable issue, not a TinyMCE issue.

This is yet another case of Chromium based browsers inserting inline styles to match the styling of the source page the text was copied from. Many of these were fixed upstream, seems this one too. That's also superseded by the block editor.
