Feature Suggestions ⇒ Code folding and whitespace

[houstontyoung]

First of all, kudos on the excellent incorporation of code folding in 2.0. It works great!

I am wondering if it's possible to have the option for fold markers to preserve whitespace after the end of the folded region. For example, if I have

\begin{itemize}
...
\end{itemize}

....

with a blank line after the \end tag, then the fold region starting at \begin{equation} will end on the blank line, instead of the line with \end{equation}.

I usually blank lines for readability, so it would be great if the folding wouldn't hide them.
