Is there any research on the behavior of lists in rich text editors?
Lists involve a number of behaviors which seem inconsistent among most popular rich text editors in the market (Medium, Word, Google Docs, CKEditor, Froala, Wordpress classic, Wordpress Gutenberg, etc).
For example:
- What should happen when a user presses
Enter
on empty item that is also the last item in the list? - What should happen when the user presses
Backspace
and the cursor is at the start of a list item? - What should happen when user presses
Backspace
on a paragraph before a list? - Etc.
Is there any research on these?
