Comment(by nirvn):

 mhugent, will check as soon as the qgis trunk PPA gets updated.

 Thanks for working on this issue. I see what you're trying to achieve with
 this latest revision. It's a good workaround. However, it forces/restrains
 users to keep a layer space == item space.

 Meditating on this yesterday night, IMO the best solution is to add a "[x]
 keep vertical margin on hidden layer titles" option in the General tab of
 a legend object. That way, you introduce this user-case as a new feature
 and insure legends created in qgis projects prior to 1.7 don't visually
 regress. It also allows for users to not have undesired vertical spacing
 while still having flexibility to independently set layer space and item
 space.

 What do you think?
