When submitting a story, one can select either "plain text" or "html" mode. I guess this option determines how text in the "head" and "body" boxes will be treated.

When selecting "plain text" mode and writing text without any html tags in these boxes, line breaks are not recognised. Instead, line break are ignore and all text is written in one paragraph. I guess this is not how "plain text" mode is supposed to work.

The obvious workaround is using "html" mode and putting in the right html tags for paragraphs and line breaks.
