Thanks for reminder. Indeed I forgot that.

Have you experience with attached multiline attributes?

For
aa=bb
cc=dd

we should display

bb
dd

when "show_value" is selected I guess.

But if I understood John Doty correctly he used something like

xxx=
aa=bb
cc=dd

for spice. Is that valid, and how to display for "show_value"?
Or should we enforce "show_name_value" for multiline attributes always?
