I tried just hacking it, and it works. The below is my git diff.

I don't know what buf_len should be set to, so I just set it to 0 and didn't cause any problems.

All of the changes below would be surrounded by some if statement for the setting. Also, instead of setting allow_empty_lines = TRUE; directly, that would be passed in as an arg.

The last step would be to add it is a preference to Edit=>Preferences=>Editor=>Features as a checkbox. I have no idea how to do that though, and will also have to create PO files (which is a lot of work).
