Any hints how I put this into an NSTextField? ;)

can you make a textfield have lines which are "half-height" for empty lines?

Some sort of special Unicode letter? or some sort of special styling?

We see this on HTML pages all the time, between two paragraphs, is a "half height" empty line.

How to do this in Cocoa, though?

NSParagraphStyle has a wide range of line and paragraph spacing options. You can see them in action in TextEdit by choosing "Other..." from the "Spacing" popup on the ruler. HTML whitespace rules mean that it doesn't really have "empty lines"; what it does have is paragraph margins, which is probably what you are thinking of. The closest equivalent would be paragraph spacing, before or after.
