We spend a lot of time on the bugtracker systems of Opera, Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer, most seem to have a very casual approach to fixing the issues that we and other developers find regarding the support for WYSIWYG editors. It feels like we are annoying them when bumping and commenting on various bugs and issues.

Why is this not higher on the agenda? Behind most websites are some form of Content Management System, and most of them have some form of WYSIWYG editor for handling normal text content, if the tools we have where better and the bugs fewer, these systems would produce better code, and in the long run improve the web as a whole.

There are certainly other tools/filters that can help improve the code before its actually published, but you would think, that the very browser that is suppose to parse and understand the code, could actually produce understandable code themselves when it comes to editing.
