Review comment:
> @mbien `CTRL+ENTER` works fine. You're reading my comment the opposite
of how it was intended. For those of use who've used this for decades,
switching away from just `ENTER` takes some relearning of muscle memory! smile
ok understood, my mistake
> How about we do the reverse here anyway? Other UIs (not NetBeans) use
`SHIFT+ENTER` or `ALT+ENTER` to type newline in these sort of cases. Let's keep
the default behaviour as it was.
i get the feeling that everyone made the decision already before testing
this fix, because... thats exactly what it does. It keeps the default behavior
as it was :)
