We really need to have posts stored in the database without this 
markup.  The paragraphs should be converted back to line breaks (same 
with <br />), and this more stuff should be converted to <!--more-->.  
Basically... it should look the same in the database no matter how you 
edit it.

I'd like to see a unified posting screen.  There are: private, draft, 
publish, static, right now.  There's no reason that you can't create an 
ambiguous draft, and then "Publish as post" / "Publish as page"

The only difference is that Pages don't have categories, and Posts don't 
have parents.  So maybe when it's a draft, you show both.

Probably some code that eats HTML comments in TinyMCE
