Commenting on a ticket does not necessarily register you for email
notification.  There's a field called "Cc" on each ticket where you can
add your email address to be notified of changes.  You can add yourself
to this field without entering a comment.

The TracFaq pages uses the reStructuredText[1] (aka reST) processor.
This is a text formatter that is included as a part of the standard
"docutils" Python library (it was originally written for formatting
Python API documentation).  So, it was the developers of reST that
decided sections were required to have contents.  You can ask them about
this, but it's not something that can be changed directly in Trac.
