[oXygen-user] Built-in Feature to Break Out Nested Topics?

[George Cristian Bina]

Hi Eliot,

We will consider adding such an action, thanks!
Please note that one of the recovery strategies on paste is to remove 
wrapper elements from the pasted fragment and try pasting their content. 
Thus, if you delete everything from a new topic except the root element 
and paste another topic there then the topic element from the pasted 
fragment will be removed and the content of that topic will be pasted 
instead.

Best Regards,
George
