--- Comment #9 from Owen Leonard <oleonard at myacpl.org> ---
The HTML option has been available since 3.8, so we must presume that some
libraries have crafted HTML-formatted notices to their liking, including adding
the necessary explicit <br> tags or whatever. If we add automatic insertion of
<br> for line breaks those existing notices then they will suddenly have broken
formatting.

To me the obvious solution is to offer a WYSIWYG interface for notices like we
have for News: Checking the "HTML" checkbox would trigger the TinyMCE editor on
the textarea. If we did that then it would be quite clear where line breaks
would fall.

The tricky part, I imagine, would be making the field chooser play nicely with
the WYSIWYG editor. That makes this idea non-trivial, I think.

In short: I don't think this patch is a good idea, but I don't have an easy
alternative to offer.
