Current situation:
The text description for the multilingual file caption instructs the user to add a "one-line explanation of what this file represents", yet the input boxes allow multi-line input when the user hits Enter.
Desired update:
On File page, enter/return should "submit" the edit (equivalent to clicking on the Publish Changes button)
On UploadWizard, enter/return should move focus to the next input field.

I have 2 patches in to change these textareas to regular text inputs, but have not yet made "enter/return" change focus to the next element in UW.
That's an unusual UX concept in default browser handling of default form elements, and across how OOUI forms are implemented in wiki.
Do we still want enter/return to focus the next element? (it wouldn't be too hard to do, just want to reconfirm we want to introduce this behavior)

This feedback is great - we may want to consider changing the UI text from "Add a one-line explanation of what this file represents" to "One-sentence" to disambiguate sentence from actual input box lines. @Jdforrester-WMF suggests seeing how this plays out after launch before making lots of small changes though.

@matthiasmullie we can hold off on that for now. I do think it'll come up again later, but we have bigger issues to tackle at the moment :)
