Your rephrase is very correct.

Only one, very specific problem in your following explanation (the UX problem
itself, and the proposal that you suggest, looks OK to me):

> 3. User expectations: If there is an image with an empty paragraph below and
> user presses enter we can assume, ...

Please do *not* talk in terms of "below/above" in such cases. As I explained in
the end of comment 13, the relative position of object and its anchor point is
absolutely irrelevant. As soon as you try to define your proposal in terms of
"user sees the image above the cursor -> they expect this or that" ... you
create a huge inconsistency potential. If you suggest to make insertion of
paragraph *before* the anchor when the anchor is the only paragraph contents,
then it should be the only behavior: we must do it no matter if the image is
above, or below, or to the left or to the right, when it's positioned absolute
or relative ...

So please drop that "below". Or the result will quickly become even more
confusing.
