2. Select all (e.g. cmd+a)
3. Copy
4. Paste

I'd expect the html contents to be unmodified. Instead, the HTML changes considerably and the visual formatting is totally different.

HTML before:
<div>
<div>
<ul style="text-align:right;"><li>A</li></ul>
<div>
    <ul>
        <li>
            <a href="">B</a>
            <br>
            C 
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>

HTML after:
<div>
<div>
<ul style="text-align:right;"><li><meta charset="utf-8"><ul style="text-align: right; "><li>A</li></ul><div><ul><li><a href="http://simple-rte.rniwa.com/?editor=%3Cdiv%20id%3D%22root%22%20style%3D%22word-wrap%3A%20break-word%3B%20-khtml-nbsp-mode%3A%20space%3B%20-khtml-line-break%3A%20after-white-space%3B%22%20contenteditable%3D%22%22%3E%0A%3Cdiv%20id%3D%22test%22%20class%3D%22editing%22%3E%0A%3Cul%20style%3D%22text-align%3Aright%3B%22%3E%3Cli%3E%3Cmeta%20charset%3D%22utf-8%22%3E%3Cul%20style%3D%22text-align%3A%20right%3B%20%22%3E%3Cli%3EA%3C/li%3E%3C/ul%3E%3Cdiv%3E%3Cul%3E%3Cli%3E%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A//simple-rte.rniwa.com/%3Feditor%3D%253Cul%253E%253Cli%253Ehello%253C/li%253E%253Cli%253Eworld%253C/li%253E%253C/ul%253E%253Cdiv%253EWebKit%253C/div%253E%26amp%3Bscript%3Deditor%2528%2529.focus%2528%2529%253B%22%3EB%3C/a%3E%26nbsp%3B%3Cbr%3EC%3C/li%3E%3C/ul%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/li%3E%3C/ul%3E%3Cdiv%3E%3Cul%3E%0A%20%20%20%20%3C/ul%3E%0A%3C/div%3E%0A%3C/div%3E%0A%3C/div%3E&scrip

    </ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>

I see a few problems with this:
1. The structure of the list items has changed resulting in all the text being right aligned and some bullets being nested.
2. Why is there a meta tag??
3. Why do we resolve the href instead of leaving it as an empty string?
