When transcribin172239-capture.jpgg from a audio, the same speaker over and over again. It would be nice if it can be grouped as a paragraph block. Is there any future plan to improve on this please?

    Yes, it would be good to be able to merge sections, and also to split sections when the transcription doesn't catch that the speaker has changed. When splitting a section, I would expect getting a new and accurate timestamp for where and when the split occurred, and of course a new speaker label.
