The existing syntax is supported by the current work that just uses literal blocks for all multiline text fields. This attempts avoiding all the semi-formatting issues, the downside being that text flow across paragraphs is broken since all the formatting is preserved as written in the eclasses. Pivoting to an actual markup language will be trivial if/when that occurs. Tim
