Turning off formatting in different order adds odd characters

[Chuck]

In the Rich Text editor, with NewLineMode="Br", if you add multiple lines of text with formatting toggled oddly across those lines :


Question mark characters get inserted when the formatting is removed in an order different than added.  Example:

If you enter a single line with formatting as follows:

plain bold italicbold italic

(italicbold meaning both are turned on - so you can see that we did bold on, <text>, italic on <text>, bold off <text>, italic off <text>
This renders fine.

But with MULTIPLE lines such as:

plain
bold
italicbold
italic
plain

What you GET is :

plain
bold
italicbold
?italic
plain

The stored HTML for this ends up looking like:
<P>plain <STRONG>bold <EM>italicbold </EM></STRONG><EM>italic </EM>plain<BR><BR>plain<BR><STRONG>bold<BR><EM>italicbold<BR>?</EM></STRONG><EM>italic<BR></EM>plain</P>

You can see the ? being inserted after the <BR> tag after "italicbold"

Skin settings:
<nt:RichEdit runat="server" SkinId="SimpleText" Width="700px" Height="240px"
    EditModes="Design"  EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" Skin="Ciena" EnableEmbeddedBaseStylesheet="true" ContentFilters="RemoveScripts"
    StripFormattingOptions="Css,MSWordRemoveAll" ExternalDialogsPath="~/EditorDialogs" NewLineMode="Br"
    EnableAjaxSkinRendering="true" ToolsFile="~/App_Data/RadEdit/SimpleTools.xml">
</nt:RichEdit>

Is there some setting I need to change to fix this?  Or is this a bug in the control?
