Newline character displayed as single space, using FF3

Description

When cut & pasting text containing a newline character into an in-line edit field, the newline character is displayed as a single space without any wrapping. The text should be displayed on two seperate lines.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Open the in-line edit demo from the daily build site:
http://build.fluidproject.org/fluid/sample-code/inline-edit/announcements/announcements.html

2) Open an in-line edit field in edit mode

3) cut & paste the following text into the in-line edit field

"before newline
after newline"

4) press enter to leave edit mode. Notice that the text is displayed in a single continuous line with only a single whitespace sepererating what was two lines of text. Notice that in edit mode the new line character is also transformed into a single space.

Environment

FF3 (Mac OS X, Win XP)

This issue cannot be resolved, for similar reasons to https://fluidproject.atlassian.net/browse/FLUID-890#icft=FLUID-890 and others. Support for multi-line operations in single-line fields in browsers is fundamentally inconsistent, and if multi-line operations are required, the integrator must supply a multi-line edit view.
