I haven't.
I ended up copying the HTML to $EDITOR, added a line break in every
«<br/>» between the «r» and the «/», and made the edit this way. It
seems to have worked, but when I opened the edit window again
afterwards it was again all one long line, so I'll have the problem again
next time.
I'm hoping I won't have to do such search-and-replace hacks every time;
it's as user-friendly as a steering wheel that does CAPTCHAs during
red lights.
Thanks for following up.
