 Description   

User reporting on Intercom that they are unable to create line breaks in Strings in the Documents tab. "\n" is getting escaped and we already override the Enter key functionality. Need to allow \n or provide a CTRL+Enter or similar to allow line breaks.

This is possible with JSON mode in Compass 1.20+

We may want to do COMPASS-896 (document how special characters like this are currently handled) before trying to take on the work described here.

sean.oh do you have any thoughts on how we should handle inserting line breaks? How does this fit into the shortcuts? Can we just use shift-enter for a line break? and how would that be represented? just as a "\n"? We use input boxes (instead of textarea) which I believe doesn't support multiple lines.
