I think this will work in the middle of a #text as well as at the ``end
of a line'' (because it creates a #text after the newly inserted <br> --
the new line -- if needed to).
I have tested this with XHTML, please adapt it to your XML-Schema:
<button toolTip="Insert Line Break" icon="../icons/br.gif">
<command name="insertLineBreak" />
</button>
<command name="insertLineBreak">
<macro>
<sequence>
<command name="insert" parameter="into br" />
<command name="insert" parameter="after #text" />
</sequence>
</macro>
</command>
PS: Note that even without your button, hitting the key Insert of the
keypad adds a #text after the implicitly or explicitly selected element
so you can continue typing. See
