Treat line breaks as line breaks. Best practice: line continuations made with backslash at end of line. This rule is optional If implementing a mixed native/creole mode. Also see [List of Line break markup].

**Rationale: ** __blog-style vs. wiki-style__\\
There was a [long discussion|Talk.Change Linebreak Markup Proposal] whether to use blog-style or wiki-style (legacy-style) line breaks. We decided to change the original blog-style line break recommendation (treat linebreaks as line breaks) from [Creole 0.3] to the wiki-style linebreaks recommendation (ignore linebreaks in normal text and end paragraph with blank line). Wikis __must__ support forced line break syntax {{{ \\ }}}.
We encourage engine developers that have already implemented the Creole 0.3 style (blog-style) line breaks not to throw away their implementation, but to add an option so that administrators can choose in which mode to run their installation. This way we hope to gain more experience with blog-style line breaks. In a blog-style line break mode, the forced line break syntax must be supported, so that line breaks will properly migrate when people copy text from a wiki with forced line break characters.
