I like to have wrapped text (which contains inherent newlines)
in page textareas so that it is more readable while editing.
All those newlines shouldn't be converted to <br />s.

If you look at the impetus for Markdown, Textile, et al, it's
to make composing HTML as easy as writing a mail message.
Needing specifically placed line breaks is the exception in
prose, not the rule.  Special formatting is going to be more
difficult with any software.
