It often useful to be able to provide newlines and some basic styling like italics in translations. Currently all html is escaped. React-intl seem to have an approach where the individual tags need approval once per use by creating a mapping to values. This is fairly cumbersome.

We could consider a general wrapper that allowed some predefined tags. The recommended approach do not support line breaks, those are suggested handled as some translated text {linebreak} and then comes a new line. But that is quite odd to ask translators to do. If so we would need a processing step that transformed\n to {linebreak}
