Split checklist items on enter when cursor is placed midway #1041

Description

@Flizzledoo

When editing a checklist item, if the cursor is placed in the middle of the text, pressing Enter creates a new blank item below the current one.

I think it would be more intuitive for Enter to split the current checklist item at the cursor position, moving the text after the cursor into a new line item.

Example:

Buy milk and eggs
(cursor between “milk” and “and”)

After pressing Enter:

  • Buy milk
  • and eggs

Right now this requires manually selecting the trailing text, cutting it, creating a new item, and pasting it.
