It depends if you want them to respect the directive in the parent page or 
not.

The variable in config.php can be changed, that is, linebreaks can be by 
default enabled or disabled. I have a feeling that in a particuar existing 
page, linebreaks should be as they are (either on or off) and to keep them, 
the directive (:nolinebreaks:) or (:linebreaks:) would work better than for 
example (:defaultlinebreaks:) which reverts to the value in config.php.

If someone requires such a directive, it could be written as a recipe.
