Francesco Sechi <francesco.se...@iet.unipi.it> added the comment:

My position is: 
if you want to encode the newline character, this should be done by both
parseString and setAttribute methods. Otherwise, the behaviour is not
symmetric.
My patch translates the newline character with a whitespace in the
setAttribute method, because parseString already does it. If you want to
encode the newline in different manner, you should develop a patch that
introduces this kind of encoding in both parseString and setAttribute
methods.
