In particular, if you scroll down at the comments, there's the question of: - How to call the setting. Currently we settled on normalized_eol (a new Configuration and TemplateParserConfiguration setting) - How to indicate a line-break in a string literal that will actually be replaced with the value of normalized_eol. Should it be \R as in regular expressions, or \eol, or what else? See comments there.
