Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

sa, she has logged in, I see, since she has a tagline and description. What problem is she having now?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

When she tried to logon, it gave her an error ... hang on, I'll get her to do it again.

It said that she didn't have a matching ID/username.

Okay. I'll reset it for her. She'll be getting e-mail shortly.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

Would it be possible for t i tags &co, eventually, not to close themselves when you break a new paragraph; or the quick-edit > to keep working through single carriage returns?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

But wouldn't that interfere with formatting a single word or phrase within a sentence?

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

What's an example of something you would type with single carriage returns? I don't use any at all.

<i> tags don't close themselves when you

skip a paragraph, do they? Oh, they do. One thing I do if I want to put in a bunch of tags, say <br> in a haiku, is copy the tag to the Windows clipboard and then just paste it in front of every paragraph with Ctrl-V and the mouse. A little easier.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Would it be possible for <i> tags &co, eventually, not to close themselves when you break a new paragraph;

I believe this is a part of the official HTML spec - the t P tag is supposed to clear out any open tags that preceed it. Not all browsers follow this spec. Hence we get situations like posts in small font sizes carrying over to the next post. I don't think we want to be doing things that purposely violate the HTML standards.

or the quick-edit > to keep working through single carriage returns?

Errr.... no. That's a part of the quickedit definition. How else would the quickedit end itself? If you want a line break, use the t br tag.

t edit In Mozilla, the tag does not close itself when a new paragraph starts.
