So you're absolutely sure that I'm one of the very rarest of users who
could fall into this trap?

I still can't see why even if you're right it wouldn't be beneficial to
merge `enriched-mode` with `enriched-toggle-markup` by prompting the users
to know which behavior they want.

When enabling `enriched-mode` we already prompt the user (to know what
to do about hard/soft newlines).
