[Trac] How do I get Trac to honor newline in comments?

[Barry Scott]

I'd prefer that a non technical user did not have to learn about
any wiki formatting at all.

Thinking about this I'd like to see a check box that turns on wiki
formatting for thoses that wish to use it. Then the non technical
user will enter text without losing whitespace. The obvious way
to implement is to wrap in the {{{ }}} in the POST handling.
