Do you have a concrete example (ideally a link to the source code)?<br>

<br>
Why do you think you need to add explicit line breaks to the translation? Does <br>
the original text have explicit line breaks? Explicit line breaks in HTML are <br>
almost always wrong. The Qt UI elements take care of wrapping text when <br>
needed. Explicit line breaks are okay'ish if one wants to put for example a <br>
filename occurring in a longer sentence on a line of its own.<br>
<br>
My advice would be to not add explicit line breaks to the translation unless <br>
they serve an obvious layout purpose. And if they do serve an obvious layout <br>
purpose then don't worry that the translation may look suboptimal.<br>
<br>
