[Kde-pim] \\N line break question

Hi KDE Developers,

I'm trying to create a good bug report but I need to ask some info from you 
first.

I use akonadi_davgroupware to get my zimbra contacts. 

It works however kaddressbook displays a contacts notes section line breaks as 
a literal \N instead of actually interpreting a line break.

I'm wondering if the bug is with kaddressbook or with akonadi_davgroupware.
I think it's not Zimbra since my Android phone doesn't have an issue, although 
that syncs via MFE not Dav...

If I enable debugging in akonadi console and view the contacts information 
being sync'ed I see this:

* 464383 FETCH (UID 464383 REV 0 REMOTEID "https://mail.s-
tainment.co.za/dav/divan at s-
tainment.co.za/Contacts/8e548460-3843-4e39-9d71-19c7dad93864:522525.vcf"

BEGIN:VCARD EMAIL:firstname at lastname.org FN:Lastname\, Firstname 
N:Lastname;Firstname;;; NOTE:This is line one of the notes section\\NThis is 
line two of the notes section\\NThis is line three of the notes section\\NThis 
is line four of th e notes section REV:2012-04-05T23:09:44Z 
UID:8e548460-3843-4e39-9d71-19c7dad93864:522525 VERSION:3.0 END:VCARD )

Hence akonadi receives the \\N. Is kaddressbook supposed to display this 
correctly or is akonadi_davgroupware doing something wrong. Possibly it's 
something wrong Zimbra is doing.
