A few options:
* we remove them (probably my preferred option)
* we add a second line (ie. mixed QStringLists and '\n')
* we make the behaviour undefined

QString blob =3D getBlob();
setText(blob.split('\n'));

but still, I think keeping at least the setText(QString) function makes sen=
se=20
=2D for large strings which haven't already been split, it's faster.

Perhaps we should provide both?

I've committed what I've done (because I had lots more changes as well), so=
=20
take a look... easy to remove if we decide against it.
