Some editors sucha s Microsoft word can automatically insert numbers or bullets on new lines when pressing enter when currently in a list. Another exzmple would be a programming editor that automatically inserts tab characters when pressing enter.
When pressing enter, NVDA should announce any text on the new line up to the position of the caret.
This should happen in all editable text except for controls with live text (e.g. terminals).
These announcements must also be configurable.
