Right now, I think that there's no way to embed newlines in values when using the "keyval" input format. I think that edit notes have been the only potentially multiline fields so far, but event setlists (see #27) probably always contain multiple lines.
The code that reads input just splits on newlines:

The web interface unescapes

I'm not sure if the keyval format is particularly useful, but I could probably change
newRowReaderto unescape tabs and newlines in a similar manner.
