Would it be possible to have the collapsing of empty paragraphs take place when the user presses a newline anywhere else in the document? Then you can freely move the cursor about to fetch a piece to insert, but there will never be more than one "hole" waiting for the insert. Solves the const-ness problem and still provides intuitive feedback to the effect of "never having more than one hole pending". Do I miss something? Martin
