As I wrote in response to a similar question today, at present there is
nothing you can do to increase the spacing between lines in the key except
to write in a blank title.  This is done by plotting something off the axes,
like

  set yrange [0:10]
  plot f1(x), -1 notitle, f2(x)

Your clever alternative fails only because there is no way to get the symbol
into the label.
