Right, but we are talking about plain text editors here.
I would expect a plain text editor to treat LS and PS and all the others the same.
A somewhat higher-level editor (like WordPad) might be smart enough to distinguish line and paragraph breaks.
My wish is that there were a real, observed standard for flowed text, not just in emails (RFC 2646 I think), where one has basically plain text but with flowed text and also line breaks and paragraph breaks.
