Yes, sorry I didn't understand you the first time.

So I guess you'd like to use HTML (e.g. Ortho.<br>2001 Calvados.) in
the layer's name and have GeoExt render this HTML for the layer
labels.

I haven't actually tested that myself, but looking at the code I think
it won't work. This is because GeoExt.LayerLegend uses the "text"
property as opposed to the "html" property when it creates
Ext.form.Label objects. See [*]. I'm curious to know if we could use
"html" instead of "text" in GeoExt.

Cheers,
