Consider the TTML cue below (from a real asset with the text changed).
 Note that there is a blank line between the two lines of text.  Thus
the cue:

     <p begin="3480002000t" end="3500007000t" style="style0"
xml:id="subtitle84">First line of text.<br/><br/>Second line of
text.</p>

Should be rendered:

     First line of text
     <Blank Line>
     Second line of text

How would you do this in WebVTT? My only guess might be this:

     84
     00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.000
     First line of text.
     &nbsp
     Second line of text

Would this work?  Is there a 'correct' way for a blank line?
