Cannot add new line in custom block's content

[ClementEXWiki]

Describe the bug
If you make a custom block and you press the Enter key, it will not make a newline but instead jump out of the block.

This is a very big limitation as it makes traditional blocks basically useless. Only inline content is supported.

I saw in another issue that using a keyDown event listener was recommended - which has a lot of problems (doesn't support clipboard pasting, doesn't work reliably in every context, doesn't always work on mobile browsers, doesn't support some accessibility options, etc.)

How hard would it be to implement support for newlines in custom blocks?

Thanks!

Type /wrapper to insert the custom block in the editor, then try to add some newlines in it.

As of 0.27.0 you can use the hardBreakShortcut in your custom block schema to decide if hard breaks should be inserted using Enter, Shift+Enter, or nothing at all.

I've modified your sandbox to show this working:

I'm not sure this is a good solution - configuring keyboard behavior directly inside the block schema seems weird to me.
The schema should (IMHO) only be for configuring the actual schema of blocks, not for keyboard bindings.

That's fair, we'll probably revisit this when we work on adding a proper keyboard shortcut API in the future. Hopefully the solution above fixed your issue for now though.
