RFC2445 says that SUMMARY is a short one line description, so I would 
think that line breaks aren't allowed, although the formal definition 
of the SUMMARY tag doesn't say so.

I can't reproduce that. The entry loads fine, but it isn't shown 
correctly in the todo view because of the line break. But KOrganizer 
doesn't hang.
