Makes Google Docs a little simplier

Thank you so much for this. Every time I made a new line I kept getting irritated and it kept pulling me out of what I was writing.

Thanks for this extension, it works. People who hate this feature, don't forget to complain via Docs > Help > Help Docs Improve so they don't pull this type of stuff on us in future.
