Given the following input:

~~~
foo

bar

~~~

`discount` outputs:

~~~

foo

bar

~~~

but other Markdown engines (such as `Text::Markdown`, `sundown` and the original `Markdown.pl` script) output:

~~~

foo

bar

~~~

`pandoc` outputs:

~~~

foo

bar

~~~

etc...

Would it be possible to align the discount behavior to the one of the `Markdown.pl` script (and the other engines)?
