Text :: MultiMarkdown skips some HTML so you can use <br> tags:
print Text::MultiMarkdown::markdown(q{ Header 1 | Header 2 -------- | --------------------------- One line | First line<br />Second line });
This produces a table body like this:
<tr> <td>One line</td> <td>First line<br />Second line</td> </tr>
Which seems to be what you are looking for.
