--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
But it does keep the new lines! Specifically via the Paste Special put in place
for bug 50746, and to be consistent with internal copy/paste single cell
multi-cell selections bug 113571 and bug 119928.
Use Paste Special <Ctrl><Shift><V>, and paste into the Formula bar as
'unformatted text', the target cell receives the content with CR/LF or
newlines.
To convince yourself, <Tab> to the next cell. Then <Tab> back to the target
cell.
CR/LF or newlines will be present. That is the way the 'unformatted text'
filter handles it.
Just the visual representation the edit shell for the Formula bar on paste does
not show--during the paste, but they are there.
The Formula bar will show the new lines when revisiting the cell.
No reason to change current behavior, simple <Ctrl>+V paste does not include
the new lines, while <Ctrl><Shift>+V w/ "Unformatted text" selection will.
IMHO => WF
