I think some priority has to be given to fix both bugs.
The pretty-printing should at least be made optional, defaulting
to off, and the change that introduced the <font size> problem should
be reverted or looked at.
I had to disable font size preselection (by lockPref) temporarily
to work around the issues it causes. But I know of no way to turn
off the pretty-printing.

Bug 812638 - Thunderbird is inserting random and incorrect <font
size="3"> tags in the middle of words throughout my email message. (edit)
I know about that bug, but I think the discussion is wandering off
into a "let's replace the editor" megaproject instead of making sure
this bug is fixed before the next release.
That is (I wrote before) what I sometimes find disturbing. People work
on the code, that is fine. They sometimes break things, that can happen.
But then it should be their responsability to fix what they have broken
and introduce the fix in the release process as soon as possible, not
to fix it in the trunk and wait two more major releases before it is
finally fixed for the end-users, and certainly not going off into a
major redevelopment program that may take years to finish while leaving
the existing users fighting the problems.
I sometimes wonder if "Block Diagrams" are used much when programming
now-a-days!! If they were, and were kept accurate, the programmers
should be able to see, if they make a change in one block to suit a
particular function, which other functions might also be effected!!
