Gutenberg: Be able to make line breaks in list block

[scottyg7]

When making lists, I often break up the content within an item with a line break (Shift+Enter). This helps make the item more readable and is appropriate for items that have longer text.

Just as we can do in a paragraph block, I'd like to be able to use SHIFT+ENTER to create a line break that doesn't result in a new block.

What about making the list nestable for _textual_ blocks?

[GaryJones]

Likewise, multiple paragraphs in a list suggest that paragraph blocks should be nestable inside list blocks.

Looks like this is a highly asked for feature. @iseulde Any technical challenge to support this?

[ellatrix]

No

Tonight we had WordPress Meetup. Nobody really believed that Shift-Enter didn't work.

Looking now.

@haemeulrich "_Nobody really believed that Shift-Enter didn't work._" Well, I not only belive it, I know it does not work.

Shift-enter has been used since the neolithic to mean "do not break me out of the element I'm in" in the context of editors. Wish this had been something gutenberg folks were aware of, I'm having to install third-party blocks just to make simple tasks non-nightmares for my clients. Sigh.

It will be fixed in the next Gutenberg release.

[chrilleferna]

Great, and while you fix that, maybe you could also fix another minor thing: to underline you have to use ctrl-u on OSX, while it ought to be cmd-u (ctr-u is for Linux and Windows)

[ellatrix]

@chrilleferna That's already fixed in #13117.
