If I have
Paragraph one this is it.
Paragraph two this is it.
and I put point after "one" and mark after the second "this", the two
paragraphs
this is it.
Paragraph two this
are joined into one paragraph. This is what I expect to happen and is
what I understand "as if [the region] were a single paragraph" to mean.
