What language are we talking about? Maybe it is not clever enough,
ie. you haven't enabled electric-pair-mode? When working with C, that
automatically inserts the opening and closing parentheses, and when I
press enter

      {|}

becomes

      {
        |
      }

just as I would want it. And of course, all instructions should be
intended.

Even if I weren't to enable electric-pair-mode, electric-indent-mode
would do the right thing when closing a block, because it automatically
re-indents the '}', when it is on it's own.
