Definitely; I really want to like Pinegrow, but it lacks some really basic functionality that has been present in visual editors for decades. I shared some of my own [feature requests in another post](https://forum.pinegrow.com/t/feature-requests-writing-mode-option-copying-links-image-sizes-spell-check-table-editor-et-al/9143), but after [further discussion](https://forum.pinegrow.com/t/roadmap-for-pinegrow-whats-cooking/9129/12) with the insightful @red-rosefields, I distilled some of my thoughts accordingly:

> I find myself having to switch over to other apps too often for really basic tasks — spell check, tables, look up the size of an image — and the visual editor mode losing links on copy-paste is a nightmare. It essentially makes editing impossible. I have never encountered an HTML editor that loses embedded links when you copy paste a block of text in a visual mode…

> Most HTML editors with a visual mode just create a new paragraph tag when you hit return when writing… but Pinegrow doesn’t seem to do this consistently (in the middle of an existing block of text, for example). When it does create a new paragraph, it’s not on a new line in the code, either. 🙁

In my view, some of these issues are more like bugs than feature omissions, even.

Unfortunately, this does seem to be the case. I’m optimistic that this will change going forward, though. Perhaps some polling for specific issues would be worthwhile, too.
