Adding a new line in Report Builder expressions

I typically use Report Designer, but I have a new project requiring Report Builder 3.0.  In Report Designer (BIDS), I can take more complex expressions (ie SWITCH with 5 or 6 options), and put each pairing on a new line to be able to better read the code.

In the Expression Editor in Report Builder, pressing the ENTER key on my keyboard closes the Expression dialog box and saves the changes.

Is there any way to add line returns in the code to make it more readable?  The expression editor wraps when it runs out of room, but this doesn't make it more readable, in some cases, it wraps in the middle of a field name, making it even less readable.

The 2012 version also has this same "feature".
