I've tested the bindings and the macros below with XHTML:
---
<command name="addSameAfter">
<macro>
<sequence>
<command name="selectNode"
parameter="ancestorOrSelf[implicitElement] p pre li" />
<command name="insertNode" parameter="sameElementAfter" />
</sequence>
</macro>
</command>
<!-- modifiers="mod" means Command on the Mac and
Control on all other platforms. -->
<binding>
<keyPressed code="F2" modifiers="mod" />
<command name="addSameAfter" />
</binding>
<command name="insertNewlineOrAddSameAfter">
<macro>
<choice>
<command name="insertControlChar" parameter="\n" />
<command name="addSameAfter" />
</choice>
</macro>
</command>
<binding>
<keyPressed code="F2" />
<command name="insertNewlineOrAddSameAfter" />
</binding>

I used code="F2" instead on code="ENTER", because the stock
configuration for XHTML already defines bindings using code="ENTER".
In your case, simply replace code="F2" by code="ENTER" and "p pre li" by
your own block level elements.
The basic idea is to bind Ctrl-Enter to macro addSameAfter to allow for
duplicating elements, even for those having xml:space="preserve"[*].
But simply pressing on the Enter key is smarter. It first attempts to
insert a newline character (command insertControlChar -- see
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/commands/insertControlChar.html)
and if (the <choice> construct) this operation is rejected by the
element, it duplicates the element.
