Covered this one yesterday ...
1. Switch to a shapefile with multi line string (like an export of Taz
Roads)
2. Grab the create line tool
3. Draw a road
(when drawing it says nothing about adding a vertex, pressing Enter
or otherwise - hole cutter was more helpful)
4. Press Enter to finish the road
5. Pressing refresh, zooming or anything else does not show your new
road. Switching between layers while the create line tool is still
around shows that it is "remembered some how"
6. Table view shows a new feature called "new"
When you comit
7. New is replaced with a real feature id
8. Your new road shows up and acts as normal
