cutting empty line does not overwrite clipboard

Steps:

* put cursor on non-empty line

* cut

* move to empty line

* cut (this is usually for cleanup/code formatting)

What happens:

* the line on the clipboard that was cut first (i.e. the non-empty line) is no longer available to paste

What I'd like:

* when I paste, I'd like to get back the most recent non-empty line I cut (or copied for that matter), regardless of how many empty lines were cut in the meantime.

Justification:

There's no need for an empty line on the clipboard since it's trivial to create them as needed.

Thanks.
