Can you give instructions on how to recreate this 6 blank lines thing? I use the same editor and I am not seeing this or any other messages that seem to have those types of issues.

Are you using the latest version when you test this?  It looks like you're using something approaching a year old and a very early alpha in terms of the new editor.  You might be making things worse by changing stuff around like you're saying.

Its important to be testing and reporting bugs based on the newest version.
