Question
Why are newlines from "Long Text Area" stripped in reports?
Pretend we have a field "Alpha" that hangs off of account. It's a long text area. For an account, we may populate it with:
"Here's some things happening:
1) Alpha
2) Bravo
3) Charlie
That's the status"
(or what not). If i expose that as an attribute the formatting is kept properly (in CS360); however, in reports, the newlines would become something more akin to:
"Here's some things happening: 1) Alpha 2) Bravo 3) Charlie That's the status"
Obviously for lists of things we'd put in the text field this is sub optimal. It becomes worse when said report is a part of the CS360 (related list). I don't see a technical reason for this to not be possible (I can see stripping markup, etc. potentially)
