This defect does not exist in 3.x stream & it's only happening for 4.0. So definitely a regression

Yes but in CKE 3.x you were able to create paragraph below table by simply pressing arrow - it is very easy to create such paragraph by accident and then save data. I was confusing some of our users.
Magic line was introduced to remove this problem. I'm not sure if Creating P on arrow will be reintroduced (hope not) but perhaps adding keystrokes to magic line would be a solution? That is why I have asked you about your opinion on this.

@J.swiderski Magicline is only visible when user hovers mouse over area where there is no paragraph, but JAWS user won't use mouse. How can JAWS user know when & where he can use the shortcut for Magicline
Magic line was created to avoid all these "orphan paragraph" bugs (this is one of reasons).
Indeed, since it is only possible to click on Magic line this is an Accessibility Compliance issue.
@satya could some keyboard shortcut (for magic line) to insert new line below or above element could solve this problem?
