That's all very savvy but most of the incidents of this problem I've seen here are simple copies and pastes of articles with their HTML tages retained. Disable this advanced editing functionality and text will be pasted just as text.

Problem also exists with limited or minimal options, AL.

Only if the poster intentionally uses HTML but not when it comes to copying and pasting.
