--- Comment #1 from ssas...@wikimedia.org ---
Yes, this is a known issue. Parsoid currently cannot handle arbitrary HTML and
convert it to wikitext in a way that preserves rendering on the html -> wt ->
html path. But, we've talked about this issue more generally in the past and
will address it including fallback mechanisms where some forms of HTML will
have to get serialized as HTML tags rather than native wikitext. I thought we
had a tracking or related set of bugs for this but, cannot find it right now.

We should identify any other related breakages that arise from within VE (which
doesn't necessarily generate arbitrary HTML) and fix them together in Parsoid.
This fix would be simpler than support for generic HTML->wt conversion that is
preserved in a html2html transformation.
