It does that when you press control enter, but suppose that you know you
want a page break before something, but you want to go back and edit that
section later? And suppose that then you delete that paragraph break that
was automatically inserted? The temporary solution is "don't delete the
paragraph break," but that burden should not be on the user. There's no
benefit to having the last line justify, even without a paragraph break, so
it shouldn't happen, even if you go and delete the paragraph break. It's the
kind of minor annoyance that makes me choose Word over other rich text
editors, and the kind of annoyance that, given time, could make me switch
away from it.

But thanks for the response. Any other takers?
