 > I'm not sure what the advantage of removing them would be. There is no
 need to remove the extra lines, wpautop will strip them.

 This was an issue on support forums, where the quoted text generally
 already has line breaks before and after. When clicking the blockquote
 button, more line breaks are added, and your reply suddenly jumps down.

 That said, the workflow for writing a blog post vs. answering a support
 question is different, so now that it's fixed for the forums in
 [meta5661], WordPress core probably doesn't need this change :)
