FWIW, I think it's a bad idea. We already nearly-doubled the vertical space required for this variable list. That was a heavy cost --- and we already got at least one complaint about it --- but it seemed warranted to avoid having to deal with very constrained variable descriptions. This proposes to make the vertical space nearly triple what it was in v10. In a typical-size window that's going to have a pretty severe impact on how much of the list you can see at once. And the readability gain is (at least to my eyes) very marginal.
unfortunately - readability is subjective. Now it is really hard to read to me. I understand so text is long enough already, and with lot of empty lines, it will be longer.
because we cannot to use colors or some effects (bold, ..) I am not feeling to well when I read it.
I proposed it because readability of current design is not too good - but it is not major topic for me - so should not to push this topic too much. Somebody can read it better, some not - it is subjective.
