This is intended behaviour. I think it is even documented, although I
can't find where.
Remember that "\n" is a C language convention for denoting a line break,
and fluid is trying to help you out be escaping your "\" backslash
symbol.
If you want to insert an actual line break into your text string, I
think you need to do that by inserting an ASCII line break (Ctrl-J, or
decimal 10) into the string directly.
Fluid usually lets you just type Ctrl-J at that point and it inserts the
correct escapes for you.
See attached fluid file, where I just typed Ctrl-J to insert the line
breaks.
I hope it survives its journey through the mailing lists intact!
