Cannot enter hard break in a textarea #298

When editing a textarea question, it's impossible to use Enter to add a hard break. Many clients ask for this. Is there a reason why we did this?

Interestingly enough, if I use Notepad, I can copy/paste text into a text area and it looks fine:

However, the summary page and the PDF have it on one line:

Which makes sense since the HTML probably has a hard break in it, which the browser just ignores. I'm guessing this is why we disabled hard breaks in the textarea field in the first place.

As a workaround, use a WYSIWYG field. However, WYSIWYG fields do not work properly with the Adobe Forms integration - see #299.
