It happens when converting from srt to sub and vice versa.

Code:

<i>first italic line</i>
<i>second italic line</i>

is correctly converted to:

Code:

{y:i}first italic line|{y:i}second italic line

But:

Code:

<i>two lines spanned
in single italic tag</i>

results in

Code:

"two lines spanned|in single italic tag"

which is incorrect - the italic tags are lost and replaced by quotes. The same happens if the <i> tag is not closed at the end of line (as produced by Subtitle Workshop).
Similar problem occurs when doing a sub -> srt conversion. The {Y:i} tag (capital Y) is taken only for the first line.
I think some parse-time convertor which replicates spanning and unclosed tags for each following line would be the best solution...
