need_part multiple lines support

[jumbo172]

I am using sphinx-needs 2.1.0. Can :need_part: support multiple lines of text? I have a paragraph that I need to reference in different needs.

   :need_part:`(1) some stuff on a single line works`

   :need_part:`(1) some more stuff
   using multiple lines does not work`

need_part is just a standard restructuredtext role (a.k.a intepreted text), it gets parsed the same as every other role, and so yes it can (from docutils CLI):

$ echo ":strong:\`hi\nthere\`" | rst2pseudoxml
<document source="<stdin>">
    <paragraph>
        <strong>
            hi
            there

Hi Chris,

Ok, so it supports multiple lines in the rst, but it does not render them as multiple lines in the HTML:

.. test_case:: example1

:need_part:(1A) some stuff does not render anything after the word stuff

.. test_case:: example2

:need_part:(2A) some stuff\n does not render anything after the word stuff

.. test_case:: example3

:need_part:(3A) | some stuff does not render anything after the word stuff

.. test_case:: example4

:need_part:(4A) some stuff \ does render it all, but all on a single line when the rst uses 2 lines

.. test_case:: example5

`I want the need_part to encompass everything in the ticks and render like a normal need does.

So I have a new line without any special formatting.

And a list:

• one
• two`

Renders as:
