[issue] Line breaks in lists no longer possible?
I noticed that a single line break in a list item no longer seems to be converted into a break element <br />. This used to be possible although Textile had another bug there and didn’t close the <li> element in such cases. 
example:
* this is list item text
and this is supposed to continue on the next line
* this is another list item
- this is list item text
and this is supposed to continue on the next line - this is another list item
 
(Here in the forum it still works.)
Is this new behaviour intentional?

No.  The fix for the missing </li> tag probably broke it.  Trouble is, this stuff is very difficult to fix without breaking other things.

I can imagine!
I’ve tried to understand just the basics of Regular Expressions several times — so far without much success. I’m always taken by speechless awe when I think of what must be behind Textile.
