How to have multiple lines in a table variable name?

Can you change the interpreter of the table to format variable names? Both of these examples fail to accomplish the goal:

% Example 1: sprintf().
varName = { sprintf( 'A multi-\nline name' ) };
t = table( 'Size', horzcat( 1, 1 ), 'VariableNames', varName, 'VariableTypes', { 'double' } )

% Example 2: multi-line char array.
varName = char( 'A multi-', 'line name' );
t = table( 'Size', horzcat( 1, 1 ), 'VariableNames', varName, 'VariableTypes', { 'double' } )

t = table(1,'VariableNames',"hello"+newline+"world")

t = table
    hello↵world
    ___________

         1     

t(1, "hello"+newline+"world")

ans = table
    hello↵world
    ___________

         1     

Not sure why you'd want this though?

I was hoping that the display would depict the multi-lines, instead of just inserting the arrow. After searching around a bit more, it seems that this might not be possible with built-in functionality.

It is not possible with any built-in functionality in any released version.
