Linkedin newline behavior

Itty bitty bug. Whenever I copy/paste into the LinkedIn text box, multiple successive newlines (i.e. "\n\n") are condensed into one. So text that looks like: "hello my other text" Becomes: "hello my other text" This is different from how the Twitter text box works (preserves my copied text), and slightly annoying to resolve. I believe this may be related to another issue too: When you click a hashtag for the LinkedIn text box, it will sometimes be placed _above_ the current cursor. i.e. if I have my cursor at: "something something <cursor is here>" Clicking a hashtag places it: "something something<hashtag>" Which again is awkward and annoying to resolve.
