 Because it's an extremely rare case (IMHO). Don't remember seen any HTML
 editors that add line breaks in the middle of a tag and even if there are
 such editors, running HTML Tidy would fix this as well as catch errors. If
 users are pasting from  external HTML editors, I think the least they
 could do it to ensure the code is well formed and appropriately formatted.

 Also the proposed regex has to be run after normalizing line breaks
 (replacing `\r\n` and `\r` with `\n`) to work properly.

 Yes, this can be fixed at the TinyMCE level by adding the "code" button
 there that opens a popup where HTML can be entered directly. Don't see
 this as a core addition though.
