We strongly disagree with you. We'll not implement that. All commands are designed to show you what they have done. In the case of the Insert command, it shows you the newly created pre or ul. Note that * the caret is positioned at the right place: inside the newly created pre or ul; * the fact that the pre or ul is selected does not prevent you from typing text right away. (Typing text inside a newly created element is by far what users most commonly do.) > Is there a way of doing that? Sorry but the only way to do this would be to specialize the Insert command which is written in Java[tm].
