The double back slashes works well (although that is not as pretty as I want). Thank you!

Or even:

  2. [ ] Book 2 ::
         Note: blah blah blah

 plus CSS

Hi,

Suppose I have a plain list as the following:

* TODO Read books
 1. [ ] Book 1
        Note: blah blah blah
 2. [ ] Book 2
        Note: blah blah blah

When the above is exported to HTML, the line breaks after the "heading line" of
each list item are lost, so it becomes "Book1 Note: blah blah blah", which does
not look very nice to me. I know I can keep the line breaks by inserting a blank
line, like this:

* TODO Read books
 1. [ ] Book 1

        Note: blah blah blah
 2. [ ] Book 2

        Note: blah blah blah

Well, this will fix the export, but the text above looks ugly now, especially
when the "Note" part is very short.

Can we add some kind of option to control whether the line break after the first
line of a plain list item should be preserved in exporting? Or maybe we can
assume the line breaks should be preserved when "org-cycle-include-plain-lists"
is set to "t", since in that case we are treating the plain list item kind of
like a heading.

Note setting "org-export-preserve-breaks" does not meet my needs, since that
will preserve ALL breaks.

Thanks for giving the above a thought.

Wanrong
