Description

In a multilingual OS (e.g., Japanese), use the Space key to convert the input character, and then press the Enter key to confirm the character.
In the chat function, pressing the Enter key will send the input character. This may cause the sent character to become a clause by clause character.
Wouldn't it be possible to select either Enter or Shift+Enter for the send key?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Chat composer with a Japanese or other multilingual input method, especially while confirming a converted character. Trace the existing Enter-to-send behavior and determine where a user choice between Enter and Shift+Enter could be exposed. Done means the selected key sends reliably without interrupting IME composition, while the alternate key inserts a line break.
