Description
<figure> <img src="image.png" alt=""> <figcaption>Caption</figcaption> </figure>
Using the above markup in the form at Posts > Add New results in an empty <p> tag being output. For example:
<figure> <img src="image.png" alt=""><p></p> <figcaption>Caption</figcaption> </figure>
Interesting, if I remove all whitespace from the markup I enter in the post form:
<figure><img src="image.png" alt=""><figcaption>Caption</figcaption></figure>
... I get a <br> tag instead of the <p></p>:
<figure><img src="image.png" alt=""><br> <figcaption>Caption</figcaption> </figure>
I believe the empty <p> is a bug with wpautop().

So what happens if you disable the wpautop filter?
