> However, no other browser hides this trailing BR, and it'd require weird, webkit-specific code to drop it from the document 'as the user sees it', which, in CodeMirror, is not just the saving/exporting of the content, but also iterating over the lines, keeping an undo history (I recently had to fix two bug related to this magic BR and the undo history) and several other pieces of functionality.

Firefox does hide BR.

How about execCommand('InsertLineBreak')?  It does the right thing.
