Ahhhh! That penny has dropped again. And can this be done for the right
margin also on a per-paragraph basis? Ie, the dialog should have:
---- Enlarge Margins ----------
Left ______ Units
Right ______ Units
---------------------------
where ______ is an input field and Units is a choice of em | cm | mm | etc
These values are then added to the Document wide ones "behind the scenes"
(Ie, the user knows nothing about how.
IMO, this is a much clearer GUI.
