Thanks, Blair. Your solution works 'perfectly'. Only problem is it doesn't
select orphan nodes at the beginning and end of the string, i.e: in
$("plain1<p>formated1</p>plain2<p>formatted2</p>plain3") only ["plain2"] is
selected.
Any idea how I can work around this?

I'm not sure if this would work at all and I'm not sure of the syntax
for the function usage of filter but I think it'd work like this
(theoretically):
$(whatevah).filter(function() {
return this.nodeType && this.nodeType == 3; // nodeType of 3 is a
Text node.
});
I have no idea if this works but it's the only thing I could think of.
Hope it helps.
