Current workflow:

  • Type out a bunch of paragraphs
  • Make a linebreak between two paragraphs
  • Click top inserter to insert an image placeholder
  • Result: the image placeholder is inserted after the empty paragraph block the caret was in

Proposed workflow: the image placeholder replaces the empty paragraph block.

This already works when using the slash command.

This is just a small enhancement to make the writing flow in the block editor more closely mimic that of a traditional text editor.

Possibly related, #3599
