fonts applied improperly to lists

fonts applied improperly to lists

If I have a list and want to change the font of each element
on the list, I highlight the entire list, and apply the new font from
the pull-down.  The new font is displayed in the html editor.

When I save the page and look at the results,
I find that  the font is still the default Trebuchet.  Looking at the
HTML code, I find something like
<ul style="font-family: courier new,courier,monospace;">
<li>list element 1 </li>
...
</ul>

If, on the other hand, I select the first list element, apply the font,
select the next element, apply, and so forth, then the HTML code
that comes out is
<ul>
<li style="font-family: new font" List element 1</li>
...
</ul>

The second approach, with the style in the <li> tag, displays
properly for me, but the first approach, with the style in the <ul> tag,
doesn't.   I've tested it with Firefox and IE on Linux, Windows & Mac
environments, and get the same results.

Is this a known bug in the html editor?
