Extension Question: Multi-line text box for user input?

Hello,
I'm looking at making a custom extension for Inkscape and would like to know if there is a way to have the user input window for the extension contain a multi-line text box for user input?
Basically, I would like a text box that can pass a more complex variable, complete with line-ends.
I've looked through the extension documentation, however I can't see a way of creating more that a simple one line user input text box.
FYI: I wasn't quite sure if this was the correct mailing list for posting this type of question, if I should be asking a different list please let me know.

At the moment, it's indeed not possible.

This looks like a simple task we talked about for maybe a new developer to get into Inkscape coding? Who wants to take up this task? I'd be happy to answer questions on how to do it.
Cheers, Johan
