Given the following example (see complete attached):

<div contenteditable="true">
<table border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>A</th><th>B</th><th>C</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1.1</td><td>1.2</td><td>1.3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>2.1</td><td>2.2</td><td>2.3</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>

It doesn't seem possible to insert content before or after the
table, using Mozilla. Trying IE, Opera, Chrome and Safari - all
seem to allow moving the caret before or after the table and insert
content outside of the table. Is there a secret key combination to
break out of the table in Mozilla?

One possibility would be to "Select All", "Cut", insert some content
and "Paste" in the middle of it. Still seems quite unintuitive and
inconvenient. I was wondering whether there isn't something like
hitting Enter once to start a new paragraph, hitting Enter twice to
end a list.
