No, it does not. Shift+Enter inserts a "line break", searchable as "\n" or as
"\u000a"

Not going to happen, the ICU library String search and its regex implementation
meets our needs of manipulating paragraphs.
"$" already is unique representation of the end of a Paragraph object. It has
no meaning in a replacment string--just a search string where it is either the
end of a paragraph object, or for composing a regex match at end of paragraph.
