Maybe start with an example where you prefer Paragraph DF instead of a
Paragraph Style or Character DF.  That's surely helpful for grasping this..

* When using formatting like CTRL+B I (personally) expect "Character DF" all
the time. Currently I control or Character DF or Paragraph DF depending on
select area. Which requires lots of awareness of the selected area. And there
is no-feedback if we go from Character DF to Paragraph DF or not (OK, Style
Inspector)

If I press CTRL+B at start of the first paragraph, doesn't mean I intend to
write full paragraph in BOLD (which makes paragraph DF the obvious choice).
Maybe I wanted to start with first word to be bold.. Result being; having
Paragraph DF bold & override by Character DF non-bold.

* There is now way to remove Paragraph DF (except for clear all DF, which is
really rigorous) 

* In the case here the user wanted to apply Paragraph Style, and assumed the
applied formatting being Character DF. Where Character DF would override
Paragraph Style. However caused by auto-application of Paragraph DF this whole
idea broke down.
