I've just again read all comments in this bug.
- There is no technical reason given: nothing will break.
- It will improve the use of text documents.
So from there: let's do it.

However, I think some caution is needed: I remember once have seen an issue 
where some default style/setting (in Calc, Writer..?) did have influence on 
some import activities.
- Hence adding Miklos and Michael in CC to ask: do you expect any issue around 
this?

Title:
  Default paragraph style should be "Text body"

Status in LibreOffice:
  Confirmed
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Summary: when creating a new Writer document, the first paragraph has
  the style "Default Paragraph Style", which leads to surprising
  behaviour.

  This bug has been reported in upstream [1], but at least some devs
  seem to believe that this is a packaging issue [2] so it might make
  sense to be fixed in downstream. Ideally fixed in upstream as well.
