Ah, well I guess technically this is a wiki formatting thing but if you just
put a second line in like:
Line 1.
Line 2.
Line 3.
It'll work a bit better.

Hi again. :-)
It doesn't quite match what the user types in. The specific issue my boss
had was when he was typing in several lines like follows:
Line 1.
Line 2.
Line 3.
This isn't an itemized list, just several lines intended to be separated by
a CR. The wiki formatting put them all into one paragraph:
Line1. Line2. Line3.
Whereas in a standard <pre> text, it would come out exactly as the user
typed.
For instance, see the sourceforge issue description boxes. Those use plain
text formatting and what you type is what you get.
I personally don't mind the wiki formatting as plain text input, but one day
my boss typed in a ticket for me to do and when I read it, the lines were
jumbled together and created a communication issue.

Just reinforce the use of the 'preview and confirm' practice.

Hi all,
I was wondering if it's possible to use plain text input in the trac
ticket description field instead of wiki formatting? The motivation
for this is to present a simpler input format for users that might not
be inclined to learn wiki formatting.
