this questionis quite similar to a faq [1]
"Will there ever be support for multiple lines in a table field?
No. 
You can embed tables created with the table.el package in org-mode buffers, with mixed success when it comes to export and publishing."

cheers,

Probably doing a table of links with the links going to multi-line text 
and having links to return the user to the table itself would work. On
