Description:
When exporting a sheet to (X)HTML, there's every chance that the resulting file might need additional massaging. However, the output is generated as one big textual blob. It would be nice is additional linebreaks could be inserted at least at logical levels (i.e. after </xxx) tags, to make editing in plain text editors a lot easier!

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Export a sheet to (X)HTML
2. Open in a plain text editor
3.

Actual Results:
One big long unstructured blob

Expected Results:
A text with line-breaks at sensible places


Reproducible: Always

Please test the upcoming version 7.5.3, which can be found at the bottom of the download page: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download-libreoffice/
There is an improvement to the HTML export formatting which should help, not only for Writer. See bug 153839.
Marking as a duplicate but please let us know if you think the fix is not sufficient.
