Ability to insert line break in the flow action Change Data Value

For fields that are used to store historical values, there is no ability to add a line break. It runs as a continuous stream of text which makes it really hard to read.  Marketo currently strips all the codes <br>, /n or any other code  that provide this functionality.

    It's actually possible to add a line break token (I call  mine {{my.linebreak}}) using a little trick.  DM me if you're interested.  And yes, I'm talking about an actual ASCII 10.

    (@Ashley Ayan​ I realized you could store it in a token and not have to worry about redoing it when saving the flow. Try it!)

      Hey, Sanford! Can you send me this trick when you have a chance? I tried DM'ing you, but it wouldn't let me.

        I'll attest to Sanford's method. Made me look like a hero.
