Hi Robert,
While waiting for VE devs to respond, there are a few things you could do
to narrow-down the issue:
1. Check what the diff window shows (click on Publish changes, then on the
popup "Review your changes" in the lower-left corner).
2. Check if there was actually one or more newline(s) (\n) inserted in
wikitext.In this case, the parser probably tries to simplify the wikitext
unless a hooman decided otherwise (this seems in line with the
"alienInline" you see).
Regards,
Strainu

Hi everyone!
Inspired by
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Gadgets#Implementing_a_custom_c…
I was trying to add a `<br />` into the VE using this command:
```
ve.init.target.getSurface().getModel().getFragment().insertContent( [ {
type: 'break' }, { type: '/break' } ] );
```
While it actually inserted the line break in visual edit mode, there was
not `<br />` in the wikitext after saving the page or switching to wikitext
mode within the edit session.
I also tried to implement the whole "command/tool" in an extension, but
the behavior was the same. The odd thing is that a `<br />` inserted in
wikitext mode survives the round trip. The linear data model shows it as
"alienInline" node then.
Any ideas why the official example didn't work for me?
Greetings,
Robert
