Why would \n work?  I think you must be confusing HTML with some other
language. :)

I can imagine a browser which would interpret a carriage return in the
title attribute title="One&#x000DTwo"", but I don't think mozilla does
this.  Title isn't limited to display in a tooltip.  You are assuming
a particular display mechanism, but the title attribute really doesn't
give control over the appearance of the result.
