If we can find an acceptable workaround, we should. And if this only occurs at
Wikimedia sites, then we probably can somehow. Can you confirm that this
doesn't happen elsewhere, Mr. Mitchell?

I can confirm this happens on a trivial test page:

<html>
<body>
<textarea></textarea>
</body>
</html>

While annoying, it's not a MediaWiki-related problem.
