WYSIWYG Editor adds unnecessary blank line before bullet/number lists in Chrome

When you create a paragraph in WYSIWYG immediately followed by a bullet or number list, like the following example :

Here is a bullet list :

• element 1
• element 2
• element 3

You will get two blank lines between the paragraph and the list instead of one. This effect is immediately verifiable by switching to the "Source" view of the editor panel :

Here is a bullet list :


* element 1
* element 2
* element 3

The (unwanted) result is visible just after saving the document in view mode. This is even more visible in edit mode if you re-edit the saved document with WYSIWYG editor.

This problem only occurs with Chrome. With IE or Firefox, the behaviour is fine and as expected.
