Line breaks in movie titles create distinct statements #99

Current dbpedia contains a statement that

<http://dbpedia.org/page/Star_Trek_V:_The_Final_Frontier> foaf:name
    "Star Trek V:"@en, "The Final Frontier"@en .

while foaf:name "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier"@en would be correct. The same issue is present in various films, predominantly (but not only, eg. Sweeny Todd) in "Seriesname Number: Title" series.

This is due to the <br /> present between the parts in Wikipedia, presumably to keep the "The" from being typeset in the first line. Can the extractor for that property be changed to ignore line breaks? Where actual lists of items are expected (eg. on dbo:starring), infoboxes appear to be using {{plainlist|...}, which should allow keeping line-wrapped values and actual lists apart.
