Yes.

And what better way to celebrate that than with a call to sage-support
with two new reproducible bugs!

1. Backspacing when there is one character left in the TinyMCE cell
gets you out of it completely, and you have to click back in the
cell.  Tabbing doesn't help.  Backspacing twice apparently acts like
backwards browser navigation, at least in Safari.  (Perhaps a side
effect of Shift-Enter closing cell?)  This didn't happen on
sagenb.org, which is 3.3.alpha3.

2. Open a TinyMCE cell.  Try any math expression ending in <b$ - for
instance, $a<b$, a common one.  Put some text afterwards, and format
it bold.  E.g., "I like the inequality $a<b$ because it's easy" and
then make 'because' bold.  Save this, and click the Edit button.
Save.  Note that <b$ has disappeared, becoming some variant on the old-
school <b> tag.  This persists throughout the whole page until there
is a > sign, and if you do enough things like this TinyMCE and/or the
browser gets confused and replaces everything with the <em> tag.
(This ate a significant chunk of my lecture notes on Friday ten
minutes before class.)  I think it might also happen with <x$ for
other symbols x, but this is the only one I could easily reproduce.
This *does* occur on sagenb.org.

Not-yet-reproducible are the mysterious extra cells and various extra
<p></p> blocks I can't account for...

Hope this helps make it even more robust.  See if you can do them too;
if so, I'll log some tickets.  I have done them on OSX.4 PPC Safari 3
running 3.3.alpha5.
