            Bug ID: 51554
           Summary: VisualEditor: <nowiki> tags added to all markup in
                    paragraph, including pre-existing
           Product: VisualEditor

a user added a link using wikitext. The VisualEditor added <nowiki> tags around
it (correct according to apparent design, incorrect according to desired
behaviour). 

However, it also added <nowiki> tags around every other bit of pre-existing
markup in the paragraph. This is incorrect according to my understanding of the
design because even if they did want to include a literal string surrounded by
square brackets they did not want to alter the existing markup.

Bug 5069 comment 5 suggests to me that this isn't that bug but a different one,
but not what number that other bug is.
