A Modest Proposal

Sometimes job names in concourse need to be descriptive so users understand what they are doing at a high level. Often job names need to have to have a lot of text if a user has a long application name and a stage could look like
"deploy application my-favourite-new-app-name-a-dev-named-this-as to cd-tools-production"

On concourse pipeline view this means that the job gets stretched out and you can't really read the text as it will automatically zoom out the longer the width of the overall pipeline

It would be great if the concourse team allowed return characters that are double escaped to be supported in job names. This functionality is native to YAML so //n would donate a return character then on the pipeline view the job name could instead of this:

Look like this:

This would mean the pipeline is less zoomed out and easily readable as it has multiline rendering capability.
