I often download pdfs and then rename them in dolphin with the title of the document that I either copied from a website or from the document itself. When doing this I regularly end up with unwanted linebreaks in the filename, for two reasons: * when selecting a line of text by double clicking in the browser and then copying with ctrl+c, the string that ends up in the clipboard is usually terminated with a newline * when copying the title out of the pdf itself, it is often broken in two lines if the title is too long for one line I don't want to have linebreaks in a filename in any situation, and can't think of a use case where they're desirable. Therefore I suggest that dolphin automatically eats all linebreaks that are inserted when renaming files via F2.

Display newline in filename as Unicode line break Related: bug 422998 M +13 -2 src/kitemviews/kstandarditemlistwidget.cpp M +7 -0 src/kitemviews/kstandarditemlistwidget.h https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/8ef3c7bc42bad4397bed0711f4317ebad9c0f8f1
Given that now dolphin can display multi-line filenames (422998), and can handle renaming those reasonably (452587), should this issue be considered fixed?
