My biggest annoyance with ddoc generated files is that when pasting code samples (eg: The Example sample from http://dlang.org/phobos/std_algorithm.html), newline characters disappear, resulting in one giant line.

For example this is part of the html for the generated example box:

sort!(greater)(a);  <span class="d_comment">// predicate as alias
</span>sort!(<span class="d_string">"a &gt; b"</span>)(a);  <span
class="d_comment">// predicate as string

Any plan in adding a <BR> at the end of each line in ddoc generation or something similar, so that pasting will preserve newlines?

I agree, it's a small problem. I think it's not too much hard to fix. Take a look in Bugzilla to see if it's already there, otherwise submit it.
