Robert,
I noticed that behavior, too. But that does seem documented under M-<RET>:
"When this command is used in the middle of a line, the line is split
and the rest of the line becomes the new item or headline".
Footnote 10 is referenced, which says:
"If you do not want the line to be split, customize the variable
org-M-RET-may-split-line."
Hope this helps,
--Erik
