When I paste a list into a shoutwiki page, it collapses all the lines together into a run-on paragraph. (This is a plain text list, not a table -- and no bullets). If I go back into edit and put "Enter" where each line should end, the result is separate lines, but double-spaced.

Is there a way to make the list display as separate lines, single-spaced? Thus:

To get a list without the monospace, fixed-width font you can add <br> after each line:
