Translate API removes NewLines from the results

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

TranslateClient client = new TranslateClient("new-line-bug");
string source = string.Format("{1}{0}{2}{0}{3}{0}{4}", Environment.NewLine, 
"en", "es");
string result = client.Translate(source, "en", "es");
Console.WriteLine("source={0}", source);
Console.WriteLine("result={1}", result);

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected to see the output to keep the newlines like the

+a+test&sl=zh-
CN&tl=en&history_state0=submit#en|fr|One%0ATwo%0AThree%0A

The result shown is "Uno Dos Tres" where the newlines have been removed

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am using 0.3.  Vista 64 bit.

Please provide any additional information below.

Yes, Google do it that way. Maybe they will change one day.
One solution is replace new line by "<br>" and translate it as html format, than
replace back.
