Solution doesnt have to pretty :D, it just has to be discoverable and if i had
to look for it, which i did when i was doing documentation, i'd check the
dialog and would assume others would also.

If i'm getting you write, my answer would be that sections are no different
than text in non-sections, where you press enter and the cursor moves downward
and not that the cursor moves upwards. Not a huge adjustment to press alt+enter
rather than enter at A1. Change comes everyday so you have to adapt. :D

If it didnt so negatively hurt inserting a section, i might be with you on
this. If its feasible to do it for indexes, go for it.
