New Author Insert Behavior? New Sibling of Current Element
I'm doing authoring of a definition list. To create a new dlentry it's most effective to move outside the current dlentry and then hit enter to get "new dlentry", rather just move outside the dd (where I am when I'm done in the current dlentry) and do "split dlentry", because split doesn't cause the required subelements dt and dd to be created. It occurs to me it might be useful to add a new option, "new sibling {tagname}" in addition "split {tagname}". Alternatively, have "split" behave like "new" such that it inserted required subelements in the newly-created element if the split occurs at the end of the split element (meaning that the split is identical to a "new" action).

Hello, We will correct that in a future version. A new sibling should be inserted with the required subelements by the Split action or a New Sibling action. Thank you for your request, Sorin Eliot Kimber wrote:
