Yes, further finetuning could be necessary.
But maybe not exactly along the lines that you suggest.
Indeed, I think that the symbolic forall notation is slightly abusive
when the body is split accross several lines.  When breaking a sentence
of this type, it seems better to write "for all x in R" in plain english,
before the equation array.  But you may file an item on our wish list,
so we can keep thinking on it.  If you encounter other interesting examples,
then please add them to such a report as well.

Ctrl+Enter is already used for several other purposes, but I noted the suggestion
to have some keyboard shortcut for this.  You might want to add it to our wish list
to keep a written record.
