Just released `v1.5.0`, which includes the fixes I described above:

- Newlines in manual mode are now rendered as `↵` plus line break.
- To disable this behaviour (e.g. if your text contains lots of newlines like [in this example](https://support.prodi.gy/t/lengthy-newlines-etc-rendering-oddly-in-ui/557)), you can set `"hide_true_newline_tokens": true`.
- You can now mark individual tokens as `"disabled": true`, which will render them in grey and will prevent the user from selecting them. This may be a nice solution for use cases similar to the one described by @KMLDS, where the text should be enhanced with formatting markup (lists, line breaks etc.) to help the annotator
