--- Comment #14 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski@hotmail.com> ---
(In reply to Thomas Lendo from comment #13)
So I don't speak about shift+enter in lists anymore.

But what's with the reasonableness of justification at the line of a
paragraph with a shift+enter line break? Are all people doing it wrong who
are suggesting a change of the actual behavior?

... and isn't this trying to discuss something undefined? We already found out
that doing that in lists is not correct; personally I don't remember other
reasons to use it in context on *this* issue - but if they exist, we need first
to hear them to judge.

As to "reasonableness": please remember that Shift+Enter is just a *line* break
- only *manual* one; and the line breaks happen all the time in paragraphs when
text doesn't fit into the line, usually *automatically*; and it's that line
break that is the *primary element at which the justification is applied*: the
text from one line break to another line break is justified (i.e., whitespaces
are enlarged to allow words to start and end at the paragraph boundaries). The
*manual line break* is a tool to allow user to *override automatic line break*;
the tool allows user to explicitly say that user wants the break happen here,
not there; it's not about destroying justification of the text between two line
breaks (when one of them is manual).
