Many web apps currently use meta + enter (that is, control + enter on Windows and command + enter on OS X) as a keyboard shortcut to submit dialogs where enter already creates a new line in the dialog's text box. Examples include: 1. Sending an email message in Gmail 1. Submitting a comment in Google Docs 1. Submitting a Facebook (although, strangely enough, when writing a Facebook comment, the reverse is true: meta + enter creates a new line and enter submits the comment) 1. Submitting a post on Twitter. We should use the same shortcut in similar use cases; for example: 1. Saving input in a dialog (e.g. the citation or template dialog) 1. Saving input from inspectors with multi-line text boxes like the formula inspector 1. Saving the page itself: when the editing surface is focused, meta + enter should open the save dialog, and it should also submit the save dialog once it's open.
