Copy 'n' Paste to External App Loses Carriage Returns (CR,CR/LF)

Hello,

I have text in simple note in Zotero and when I do the following:

- Control-a to highlight everything
- Control-c to copy to clipboard
- Open other app (say a simple text editor)
- Paste from Clipboard

I get a long string with no carriage returns. Technically, I'm running Linux so no line feeds.

In testing, it didn't matter if the text in the note was the normal formatted or set to 'Preformatted Text', the paste was just one really long line.

I'm running Zotero 5.0.60, which is the latest at time of this writing, on Debian Jessie Linux, and the pasting was into Emacs and Mousepad text editors.

Any ideas?
