I'm not sure if the changed Return behavior would affect how text is 
pasted into Outliner, but that may be a consideration. One thing I have 
found quirky (and I've seen at least one other person on this list mention 
it) is the way text is pasted in.

Currently, if paragraph-formatted text is pasted within an Outliner line, 
it is inserted only in the text area of that line. More commonly, I'm 
trying to paste such text in to fill out an outline, and to do that, I 
have to select an entire line. The way the selections appear on screen is 
almost indistinguishable at quick glance -- the selected line is fully 
highlighted, but the when the text area only is selected, there is a small 
unhighlighted area to its left (yet otherwise, it still looks line the 
line itself is highlighted).

Anyway, I'm in favor of the split and concatenate. However, I will have to 
think about what keyboards would make the most sense for me in Outliner. 
(Coming from Aportis' BrainForest Pro, I find Outliner's keyboard commands 
and operation different enough to confuse my fingers.)
