I now believe this has to do with the "Strip trailing spaces and tabs" setting (Preferences > Files > Saving files); while the editor still displays the blank line, it is being stripped when the file is saved.
It's unlikely that the last line is stripped off completely. I think you should check the 'Ensure new line at file end' preference, it sounds like it's activated while you want to disable it :).
