I think you misunderstood, it stays that way (eval one line). But it was
unfinished, eg a line 'thi|s' where | is the cursor evaluated 'thi' and
moving s to the next line.

I don't think we should bother about multiline edit before evaluation
(other than highlighting multible lines and pressing enter). Authors
should use ; and not \n.
