page break and extra space

Hi, I'm using tinytinymce, and it works great! However, when I use the page break thingy, it seems to insert it inside of some p /p tags (see html_source.png & edit.png).

This creates an unsightly gap below the title (see no_show_teaser.png), and it messes with my list items (presumably because firefox is looking at some half tags). When I have the "Show summary in full view" checkbox checked, it all looks good to me (see teaser_showing.png). In IE7, the space is still there, but at least the bullets aren't all spaced out.

If I turn off the Rich Text Editor using the link at the bottom right before I publish it, and then delete out the extra p /p around the !--break-- it looks exactly like I want it to (see no_peepee.jpg). Every time I re-open the page to edit it, the p tags are back! I could manually delete the p tags every time, but that would be a pain, and there are others less technical than me that are going to be doing edits. By the by, Shift + Enter, or adding the page break on the same line as the text still results in and extra /p tag at the end.

So. Does anyone know how I can configure the !--break-- to be added without adding p tags? Or some other sort of solution. Thanks a bunch!

PS - From what I can tell, here's a similar problem for TinyMCE (dunno if it will help): http://drupal.org/node/178585
