I noticed that if I edit the file
src/Data/Drd/drd_std.cpp
so that instead of
--
  init (NEW_LINE, "new-line", fixed (0) -> name ("new line"));
  init (NEXT_LINE, "next-line", fixed (0) -> name ("next line"));
--
I have:
--
  init (NEW_LINE, "new-line", fixed (1) ->accessible(0) -> name ("new line"));
  init (NEXT_LINE, "next-line", fixed (1) ->accessible(0) -> name
("next line"));
--
Then the <next-line> and <new-line> tags are not accessible, i.e. I
can't stand in them, so that the surrounding environment is always lit
up. Good! But when I stand beyond the <next-line> tag, I'm still on
the line above, not on the next line...

I've no idea what I did above, and what the various flags in this file
do... it just sounded right.

It could also be that I'm going the wrong way. Maybe there is an
easier way to put line breaks into <around>s.
