1st: This kind of attitude is extremely unhelpful for anything. Obviously, the
majority of OO's end users are not capable of writing patches - that's what the
developers do. Nobody suggested it was easy, but writing an office suite isn't
easy either. Looking at some of the features which *are* being given priority,
it makes more sense to me that something as fundamental as being able to handle
text properly should be among them. Paying someone to provide a patch would
defeat one of the major advantages of OO - it's free. If I have to pay money for
a word processor not to lose my work, I'd rather spend it on purchasing a
commercial package of higher quality. Also, the longer this problem is ignored,
the more difficult it will become to change later. 

2nd: I think this is rather irrelevant. What percentage of users need Obscure
Feature X? A word processor should handle text, as much text as a user wants and
in the way the user wants to format it it - everything else is second place.

3rd: However, any attempt to rejoin the split paragraphs results in immediate
loss of data, without warning, and without any undo information being saved.
