Blogger's HTML Editor

Lately I have been doing a lot of blogging with Blogger and have noticed that the HTML editor is really not very good.
It has a number of really annoying features
  • It inserts <br> tags into your code when you are in HTML mode
  • On Mac if you paste with Apple-V it puts the text in the preview area and not in the editor
  • Adding an image adds it at the top of the article not where you were
  • These issues strike me as basics for what is the leading blogging platform.

    I'm finding this frustration also. I'm trying to display code and I'm getting
    tags inserted automatically where I don't want them. I have yet to find a work around... (other than perhaps sourcing the HTML I want to display with JavaScript from another server).
