Carsten,

Thanks for the recent \{ and \} LaTeX fix, btw.

To add to my recent post about the newlines, here's a concrete example
for newlines in both HTML and PDF: flashcards. It's extremely useful
to be able to visually break up text on a flashcard using linebreaks.
And org-mode is ideal for organizing flashcards by topic, subtopic,
etc.

I use org-mode's export to LaTeX to make flashcards for students who
want a printout they can cut into paper flashcards. For those who
prefer to review flashcards with Anki, I use export to HTML. My
post-processor perl scripts will be much happier if org-mode takes
care of the linebreaks. :-) 

Thanks for considering this,
Bill Powell
