You *can* get an empty line between two headers by having two empty lines at
the end of the first section: the first empty line is considered part of
the section and is folded with it, but the second one remains. E.g.
,----
|
| * foo
| This is a test.
| ** baz
| and another
|
|
| ** hunoz
| and one more
|
|
| * bar
`----
When you fold it, it becomes
,----
|
| * foo...
|
| * bar
`----
HTH,
