--- Comment #5 from bgwh...@gmail.com ---
My mind doesn't always understand itself either.

Currently, newlines inside <ref> tags or Image/File brackets are ignored.  This
was also the case for <blockquote> and various quote templates.  

Due to Visual Editor's logic, VE was *not* ignoring newlines in <blockquote> or
the quote templates.  The solution to fix whether newlines should or shouldn't
be ignored was bug 6200.  6200 fixed the parser code so newlines are *not*
ignored by anyone.

The question is, does VE respects newline characters in <ref> and Image/File
brackets?  I ask the question because:
1) Bug 6200 languished for eight years until the problem showed up in VE
2) If VE is not ignoring the newlines, this too becomes a VE vs parser issue.
3) To show a past precedent of newlines being ignored and the bug being fixed.
