Paste from Word nests paragraphs

[QualiWareUA]

When I paste text copied from MS Word using "Paste from Word" button I get nested bulleted list items despite the fact that in MS Word the list is not nested.
I can be reproduced using http://www.telerik.com/DEMOS/ASPNET/Prometheus/Editor/Examples/Default/DefaultCS.aspx demo. Just create the following document in MS Word 2007:

List:

• item1;
• item2;

Then copy the text and paste it using "Paste from Word" button, switch to HTML mode and inspect the content (I've manually removed extra formatting):

<p>
  <span>List:</span>
</p>
<p>
  <span>Item 1</span>
    <p>
      <span>Item 2</span>
    </p>
</p>

If I paste the same text preserving Word formatting - everything is ok:

<p><span>List:</span></p>
<p><span>item1;</span></p>
<p><span>item2;</span></p>

Did anyone experience this problem or have any ideas how to fix it?

Has this been fixed.  I am experiencing the same issues with a numbered list.  The list and all text afterwards is nested.  If I paste and keep the MS Word formating, then the list appears correctly.  This is a huge problem for us and I would appreciate any information on when this will be fixed if it hasn't been already.

I was able to find what seems to be a solution.  I set the RadEditor's ContentFilters property to "None".  That fixed the problem of the nested paragraphs and list items.
