Describe the problem
On multi-line strings it is not possible to check for a maximum amount of lines.
For example when translating for displays that can show a certain amount of lines of text.
Solution brainstorm
Add a max-lines:<value> check that triggers when the amount of lines exceeds the value.
Describe alternatives you have considered
- Have the source string always use the max amount of lines and rely on the
newline-count: cumbersome, means having to always append the full amount of empty lines to translations.

Additional context
The newline-count is not sufficient, because with a compact source language like English there might be less lines used in the source string than are actually available.
