Line breaks are ignored

For the issue reported in markdown_quill, the fix may be in this repo. Could you please investigate this? The fix may be in EmptyBlockSyntax.

      @override
      Node? parse(BlockParser parser) {
        parser.encounteredBlankLine = true;
        parser.advance();

        // Don't actually emit anything.
        // return null;
        return Element('br', null);  // this change seems to work for my use case, but I have not tested fully.
      }

Sorry, the summary of that issue doesn't really spell out the issue either. I can't read the whole thread to try and tease out what the issue might be with the markdown package.

I think this is not an issue with the markdown parser, so this can probably be closed. Markdown quill "swallows" new lines in some instances, however, I think it can be tracked down to incorrect conversion in the library itself, see https://github.com/TarekkMA/markdown_quill/pull/37

Markdown itself ignores multiple linebreaks. See https://github.com/TarekkMA/markdown_quill/issues/20#issuecomment-2446943221 for example...
