Summary: False positive: More than one line break within one sentence
Initial Comment:
If you have following sentence then LT detects a sentence begin error
("laufend" -> "Laufend"):
"Ein Satz mit\n
\n
laufend neuen Fehlern."
This is because it detects two consecutive line breaks as a sentence
terminator. Maybe this would be an unexpected behavior.
I also tested this case with English language (same results).

Message:
Ok, I realized that the issue wasn't already there if the first paragraph
ends with a comma (currently LT 1.4 in use). If the comma is missing, then
LT shows a grammar error alert. For instance:
"Ein Satz mit
laufend Fehlern." ("laufend" --> "Laufend")
If there's a comma at the end LT detects that both paragraphs belong to the
same sentence:
"Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
und so weiter." (no error)
In my opinion, this behavior is correct. Because the first example could be
a subject line (Betreffzeile), so the next paragraph must start with an
uppercase letter.
I also tested the current snapshot. The behavior seems to be the same (it's
correct). We will migrate to the actual LT relase in the next time.
Thanks for your very quick help, Daniel!
Best regards
PAX

Message:
The special case of a salutation should be fixed (see
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=655717&aid=2830181&group_id=110216).
Are you using the latest version of LT and if so, how exactly are you
testing? In the GUI, via Java?

Message:
This depends on your implementation that links LT. If you have following
two paragraphs:
"Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,\n
\n
es ist mir ein großes Vergnügen..."
If your implementation checks the second paragraph but includes the last
part of the previous paragraph to consider the entire context then it must
remove all unneccessary line breaks. Otherwise, LT is confused. This would
be uncomfortable.

Well, we consider this a feature... Is there a case (not counting broken
formatting) where there are two line breaks and there's not a new sentence?
