Well, instead of trying to get blank lines inserted, I went with collapsible menus. Of course, only Adobe Digital Editions seems to show collapsible menus, but the regular blank lines show up in the Sony eBook Library or FBReader. I used Jellby's Epub version of Sylvie and Bruno for my example. Basically, you just move the </navPoint> for the Book to the end of the Chapter so the menu becomes collapsible in the toc.ncx file.

Non collapsible menu
