Don't litter posts with whitespace (empty paragraphs inserted around code blocks)

Hi @Andrew Neil 

We have been investigating this issue for some time and indeed the <p>&nbsp;</p> in the HTML code seems to add itself in. 

It can be "hot-fixed" by adding a <div> (text) </div> between the text. This also applies to code blocks that are facing issues. We are still researching a complete fix, so I cannot give you a time frame at this point.  

Best regards,
Laurids

And the SHIFT-SHIFT-EIGHT / GT-GT-EIGHT breaking things, I reported elsewhere, impacts both source code block panes, and primary post texts.

Honestly we don't need to be breaking stuff to support f***ing emoji's !!

It cant be that difficult. Its just text and some html elements!!!
