Default Line breaks in TOC

How can I properly insert line breaks between manually
numbered chapters in my LOT (list of tables)?

Thanks to help from this group, I am successfully numbering
tables in Word 2003 / Win XP Pro by manually inserting, at
the beginning of each chapter the following two sequence fields:
{ SEQ Chapter \h } { SEQ Table \h \r 0 }

and then each table gets a little caption (on one line) like:
Table { SEQ Chapter \c \* MERGEFORMAT }-
{ SEQ Table \* ALPHABETIC }: my favorite table

If I want to have additional details that don't appear in the
LOT, then I insert a style separator followed by any further
text as discussed in:
http://groups.google.com/group/micro...80228893dcddf/

And life is good with my LOT looking like:
{ TOC \h \z \c "Table" }


Only. Only as the number of tables has grown, currently at 35
tables in 6 chapters, I find that looking at the LOT would be
far nicer if there was a line break interspersed between, say,
chapters. And I found that I could manually do this by going
to the displayed LOT, placing the cursor, and hitting Enter at
the desired locations.

Trouble is, this will be obliterated next time I update the
entire table (and even if it wasn't, how should the table know
where I had intended my line breaks?). So my question is
whether there is a proper way to have line breaks between my
manually numbered chapters in the LOT?

Thanks for any tips,
