Interesting idea and not specific to AUCTeX at all.  Here's a quick and
dirty minor mode which does what you suggest.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defface th/reduced-blank-line-face
  '((t (:inherit default :height 0.5)))
  "Face used for blank lines.")
   
(define-minor-mode th/reduced-blank-line-mode
  (let ((keywords '(("^[[:space:]]*\n" 0 'th/reduced-blank-line-face))))
    (if th/reduced-blank-line-mode
        (font-lock-add-keywords nil keywords)
      (font-lock-remove-keywords nil keywords))
    (font-lock-flush)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Bye,
Tassilo
