I know LyX is very strict on not allowing empty lines but I think there
should be one exception: a line that contains only a display formula.
The attached document demonstrates the situation: LyX shows no space
difference between the text and the display formula. However, the output
shows such difference. It would be good if LyX makes one aware that one
has started a new paragraph before a display formula by showing that
extra empty line created.
Also, the numbering/bullets get moved in front of the display formula in
LyX. I guess this problem would be solved as well if the empty line
would be rendered in LyX.
Maybe it would be even good if such an empty line would be highlighted
with some symbol at the beginning because most of the time the added
break will not be on purpose. And it can even lead to the infamous LaTeX
error in LyX when, for example, a description contains only a display
formula.
