Line breaks / paragraph breaks in the comment/description don't render properly in the subscription window. 

Workaround: At least change a line break into a space if it has technical difficulty to display line breaks there. 

Reproducible: Always

The API doesn't seem to preserve line breaks in the comments of the publish to collection call.

Instead, I'm adding a space after the line break so that when they are stripped, at least there is some whitespace between lines.

Bug 498078. Line breaks need preservation on the AMO page too. Please forward dupe it here if desired.

I'm fine with breaks being converted to spaces in the extension since there's not much room there to work with. We'll make the other bug exclusively about the website.
