Initial newline in string attribute not quoted in exported CSV?

I have an artifact with a String attribute. In that String attribute is a string with a leading newline. When I export to CSV, this String attribute contents should be encased in quotes, but it isn’t, which erroneously breaks the CSV row.

Should be: 

id,Artifact Type,Rationale,Name
71440,Generic Text,"
initial newline causes CSV export problem...",Newline to CSV Issue

But get this instead: 

id,Artifact Type,Rationale,Name
71440,Generic Text,
initial newline causes CSV export problem...,Newline to CSV Issue

Anyone else notice this?

I tried this in 5.0.2 and it works as expected for me.

I tried it with the Primary Text attribute and another custom attribute of Type string and it worked in both cases for me.
