Enter Key Quality of Life Change

In Microsoft Teams, I am able to click on the "show formatting" button when typing a message that lets me type into the chat text box where I can press the enter key on my keyboard without sending the chat message. I use it frequently to make messages clearer in Teams. It would be nice to have something similar in Hatz. I run into issues where I will accidentally click enter and send the chat message half finished. More or less poisoning the chat session with the AI. For longer prompts, I tend to type them out elsewhere then paste them into Hatz to get around the issue. A button like there is in Teams (or even a toggle in the user settings) that allows me to press the enter key without sending the chat message to the AI would be a great quality of life feature.

Prompt window in Chat, formatting for multiple lines of text.

Is there a way to add more formatting within the prompt window in Chat? Currently, if you hit 'enter', it immediately submits the text within the prompt window. Is there a way to make this prompt area, editable, per se. So that you can enter more lines within the prompt window and hitting 'enter', like with MS Teams after hitting the 'pencil icon' in a new Teams message, so the text entered within the prompt window can be formatted better. Is there a way to 'show formatting options', within Chat and the prompt window?

+1 and voted. Same problem here: accidental Enter sends half-finished prompts, so I end up composing long prompts elsewhere and pasting them in.
In addition to the Teams formatting composer described above, later versions of Teams also offer a setting under Chats and channels to choose whether Enter sends or starts a new line. Slack has the same per-user option: Preferences > Advanced > "When writing a message, press Enter to…" with either "Send the message" or "Start a new line" (with Ctrl/Cmd+Enter to send). I don't use Slack, but the docs are here: https://slack.com/help/articles/115005523006-Set-your-Enter-key-preference

Shift + Enter adds a new line without submitting.

Could not agree with this more.
I understand that we can hit "shift+enter" here, but the amount of input we give a chat prompt at times... just begs for a user error. Then you have to quickly click the "X" to stop the prompt from answering. When you do, there are times it messes with the chat log where I need to leave the chat by going into a different chat, then come back to this one so all chat history is there. The alternative is to wait 2 minutes for it to finish generating an answer, then edit the existing prompt (where enter acts as a line return now btw...), then re-submit it. Those minutes add up for people like me who use Hatz about 4+ hours a day, everyday.
I can't tell you how many times I've accidentally pressed enter when writing a prompt.
I would love to see this default to where the enter button only gives you a new line return, and then the 'submit' action would work with "ctrl+enter". This is like how Outlook works when you send an email.
