<br /> tags automatically added, then disappear; broken bullet lists?

To recreate this behavior (working from nightly 2/25/05, on both Firefox 1.0 and IE 6.0 on XP):

Type in some text, the click "enter".  Switch to code view, and you'll see:

<p>This is some test text.</p><p><br /></p>

You'll notice a superfluous <br /> in there.  Now, switch back to regular view, and the <br /> dissappears.  Again, switch to code view and you'll see:

<p>This is some test text.</p><p></p><p />

Now you see there's a <p /> tag after a new empty <p></p>, which I don't think is valid markup (although, please correct me if I'm wrong here).

Finally, switch back to regular view one more time, and the <p></p><p /> disappears completely.

I think this is related to another problem with editting bulleted lists.  To recreate, simply work off the default sample text, or create a bulletted list, then try to add another bullet in the middle of the list.

Go to the end of a bullet, click "enter". 

Instead of adding another bullet, is creates a new line and splits the list into two lists.  I know this isn't a great description, so here's approximately what it looks like:

     * Bullet 1
     * Bullet 2
     * Bullet 3 <- put the cursor at the end of this line, press "enter"
     * Bullet 4
     * Bullet 5

And then is looks like this:

     * Bullet 1
     * Bullet 2
     * Bullet 3

Bullet 6, but it's not a bullet as expected, it's added as a <p><br /></p>

     * Bullet 4
     * Bullet 5

Thanks for any help anyone can offer!!
