Thus I prefer the compacter display by lynx that does skip many blank lines.

Correct - thanks for the great test case. Now I got some other idea, what
the compact option may do: compact lists with progressivley longer titles
are handled well both by Netscape (4.76) and w3m.
I'll give iCab another try, too. is there anyone interested in comments or
screenshots/text files of the display?
Kind regards
