We need to.

  | some  | table    |
  | LaTeX | $1 + 1$  |

Here, when editing "$1 + 1$", you certainly don't want to insert
a newline character.

Likewise

  Some $1+1$ paragraph

is very different from

  Some $1+

  1$ paragraph

Some blank lines are meaningful in Org, so removing them could change
the structure of the input. I wasn't sure it was a good idea to do this
on user's behalf. 

The code should also prevent footnote definitions to contain two
consecutive blank lines. But that's another story.
