Enter and tab behaviour feedback #1552

Description

@karmatosed

This is a very specific feedback from a user test sent in via the testing form, so thought worth issue:

"I find the "enter" and "tab" behavior to be absolutely maddening. I expect at the end of an unordered list that hitting enter twice will LEAVE the list and start a new paragraph, instead I'm trapped in a list.

I find it bizarre that tab doesn't indent things like it does in every other editor I can remember using. Don't me wrong, I LOVE keyboard shortcuts and tab between form fields regularly, but these aren't form fields these are full on WYSIWYG content blocks and I expect them to behave like Word, TextEdit, etc... all do when it comes to the keyboard.

I need keyboard shortcuts for formatting things, like turning 5 lines into an unordered list, or indenting/de-indenting some text.

I've tried HARD to write in this, but after a few paragraphs I'm at my wits end and go back to the old editor because this is just too slowly and awkward."
