I believe this is being processed by Jinja2, which is ignoring the
newline.

Here debug is calling exit_json() which in turns calls json.dumps() [1],
which will escape the newline.
>>> json.dumps("one line\nanother line")
'"one line\\nanother line"'
You'll notice that in hipchat you don't see "\\n" but "\n". The function
send_msg() in the hipchat module is correctly calling urllib.urlencode()
to create the URL and then making the external call (no JSON involved
here). I believe this is a separate issue (i.e. hipchat not correctly
interpreting newlines).
