Comment(by demetris):

 @Peter:  Yes.  On the other hand, it doesn’t make sense freezing strings
 when the UI is still fluid.  See, e.g.:

 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11445

 This will be in Beta 3 or RC 1, whatever comes next.

 It would be good to have an official schedule for this.  For one thing, it
 would save resources.  (For example, this patch I submitted here may be
 irrelevant in 6 months.)

 Or, if not an official schedule, then something like this:

 1.  There is always a Beta 2 and strings freeze when Beta 2 is released.

 2.  There is always at least 2 weeks time between Beta 2 and final
 release.

 @mrmist:

 This has nothing to do with the current annoying trend of verbing nouns
 even when a verb already exists.  “To paragraph” is established usage,
 centuries old.

 That said, I like your “Keep line breaks” better.  But it’s not
 descriptive of what the option does.
