While the classic implementation is as you pointed out, the idea behind the
whole concept is to *highlight* the first character/word of a
paragraph/chapter/... - and *typically* highlighting occurs not only by
different font, but also by different size and spanning across several lines.
But the OP's idea is a plausible extension of the concept, where N in {span
across N lines} could be 1, and highlighting is done only by different font.
Currently one can only implement this using manual assignment of a special
style to first parts of corresponding paragraphs. Which, of course, might lead
to errors (when some are erroneously skipped, or a highlighted portion got
shifted by a find/replace operation and later the highlight wasn't cleared).
