Re: [O] possible org-insert-heading bug?

[Robert Horn]

I've noticed a probably related bug.  In a file like

* before
  break between

If I put the cursor between break and between, M-ret causes the result

* before
* break between

rather than what I expected:

* before
  break
* between

With the holiday coming I might look at it also and figure out what is
happening.
