In that case, you can use something like (without regexp):
Replace all paragraph breaks with "¬" (or some other unused char).
Replace all occurrences of "¬¬" with a paragraph break.
Replace all other occurrences of "¬" with a space.

Code:
No, it's text that has short lines,
a break comes after several words
and is very annoying to read on an
e-reader. There are no extra lines in
between. Sometimes I get this,
which is even worse, and
has to be taken care of as well.
Or I get
this, which looks like coding a text
like a poem,
which is the worst.
See how bad it looks? I tried the above on a .txt file and it worked, thank you! I will have to try it out with various files, but I think the extra spaces shouldn't be hard to remove.
(Um, I totally misread this line "I guess true paragraph breaks are represented as two consecutive breaks (aka empty line), right?". Yes, you're right. I'll leave the above representation as an illustration.
