creating a map with many text objects each containing one village name etc. or sth similar it would be nice if we could

- type all names with enter/linebreaks

- and then choose something like 'create separate text objects for each text line'

I know I could convert the start text into outlines and then individually placing/moving them, but I still want to be able to edit all texts in one go (e.g. changing font size, colour, etc.)
