Exiting blockquote requires multiple Enter presses

Phenomenon

When editing text inside a blockquote in Chrome, exiting the blockquote to create normal paragraphs requires multiple Enter key presses or manual manipulation. It’s difficult to exit the quote context.

Reproduction example

1. Create a blockquote: <blockquote><p>Quoted text</p></blockquote>
2. Place cursor at the end of the text
3. Press Enter multiple times

Observed behavior

• First Enter creates paragraph within blockquote
• Multiple Enters may be needed to exit
• Or blockquote cannot be exited easily
• User must manually manipulate DOM

Expected behavior

• Should be able to exit blockquote easily
• Or behavior should be predictable
• User should understand how to exit
• Exit should be intuitive

Browser Comparison

• Chrome/Edge: Exit may require multiple Enters (this case)
• Firefox: Similar exit difficulty
• Safari: Exit behavior most inconsistent

Notes and possible direction for workarounds

• Intercept Enter at end of blockquote
• Create paragraph outside blockquote
• Provide clear exit mechanism
• Document blockquote exit behavior
