I've read the release notes for the last few versions of the editor and could not find entries adressing php tag replacement with special chars.
Can the editor now be configured to leave PHP scripts/tags ,contained in the loaded content, alone; or does the source have to be manually edited to get this functionality?

What I would fine very handy to use is either an option to avoid parsing <?php ?> tags, or a special tag, let's say <code> </code> (like now is treating SCRIPT and STYLE tags) where I can insert some php without getting parsed.I don't understand right now where in the code recognizes SCRIPT and STYLE tags to let them remain untouched during the XHTML. ( getXHTML is inside _source/fckxhtml.js but where it set's special tags to be script and style ? )
