Gah, yes, my bad. Walter is correct - newlines are rendered as is
within the textarea. (I was thinking about outputting the result.)

I should know because I've used this before, i.e. to allow a user to
input a newline-separated set of response strings for a poll creation
tool. And it works fine :-)
