1.> Reusable content is added to an html field control as shown below
2.> Under the "Reusable Content" inserted into the page inside the same field contrl, add any OOTB web part.
3.> When you save or publish the page, the html gets mixed around and displays incorectly.
Hypothesis: I have to think this is a bug as each item can be added individually.
Possible Resolution:
- Use different page layouts with more field controls or
- programatically retrieve the reusable content and display it or
- Use a dataview WP with custom xslt to display the reusable content.
Tip: Reusable content is similar to what it was in MOSS, it is available if the SharePoint Server Publishing feature is activated in both the "Site Collection Features" & "Manage Site Features".
Additional info: Serge Luca confirmed this issue.

We've been seeing this same issue on both MOSS 2007 and SharePoint Server 2010. It's driving me nuts. Please post any resolution to the issue. Thanks.
Hi Eugene, This is a SP2010 bug. Pretty painful and the only resolution which, is not ideal is to use the same approach as we used in MOSS in that web parts can't be intermingled with reusable content.
If I have a long list of reusable items, as you move your mouse down the list, sometimes SharePoint inserts a reusable content item that you have not selected. Other times I have seen as you scroll down the list, the reusable content selection disappears and it looks like you are no longer in Edit mode. You have to click Save and Close, then go back into edit mode.
FYI - You need to install the June 2011 CU and it will resolve the issue you're reporting. Keep in mind that you'll need to add the reusable content to the effected pages again.
I have upgraded to the Feb 2012 CU and the issue still exists. Also, the flag to show Reusable Content in the dropdown is being ignored (all of my items are set to not display in the drop down - I was hoping tha the 'More reusable content...' link would behave better).
