OK KPP, for that purpose it's fine.  And I like your idea of adding
pictures and stuff.

What I meant with pressing 'Return' without adding a line was that, very
often when you have a table, if you press 'Return' it creates a new line
in the document, and makes the particular cell larger than the others. 
This one doesn't, at least for the three lines I wrote.
