Well. Technically, we already warn users that the blank lines are
preserved in the verse blocks:

    12.1 Paragraphs
    ===============
    
    Paragraphs are separated by at least one empty line.  If you need to
    enforce a line break within a paragraph, use ‘\\’ at the end of a line.
    
       To preserve the line breaks, indentation and blank lines in a region,
    but otherwise use normal formatting, you can use this construct, which
    can also be used to format poetry.
    
         #+BEGIN_VERSE
          Great clouds overhead

          Snow covers Emacs
    
             ---AlexSchroeder
         #+END_VERSE

So, I now think that while extra cleanups might be OK for ox-latex, we
may not want to ignore empty lines universally in all the verse blocks.
