Page Jumps lost when switching Visual to Text a couple times

[Deon B]

Hi
I used WP for about 7 years and this bug has always been there in every version of WP I ever used.

Create page jumps in Text Mode.
Switch to Visual and make a few edits to the blog post.
Switch back to Text
Switch back to Visual

Some page jumps are gone:
<a id="xxx">
is replaced with this:
&nbsp;

Hi @deon-b, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the report.

Which version of WordPress are you using? Could you check if the issue still exists in WordPress 5.0.1?

hi I am using 4.9.8 and it happens for sure.
Were you aware of this issue? Has it been fixed?
