You don't have "Use Paragraph's Default Alignment"? The point of this
option is to undo customization. That's why I added it. ;-)
Ah! I didn't try it before because it says "[justified]" But this
indeed fixes the formatting of the pasted footnote content.
Thanks!
Hmm. We had a really, really long discussion about what this button
should say. And now it looks as if maybe we chose badly. Would
"Default" by itself have been clearer? Or would removing the
"[Justified]" part have been helpful? I'd like to get this right.

My take is that if "justified" wasn't there I probably would have
tried it. But if it actually removes paragraph formatting (even if
it resorts to the default for the context) wouldn't it be clearer
to say "Remove Paragraph Formatting"? I'm surmising it's doing
both. So I understand the problem in the wording. And I appreciate
your interest in the detail here!
The short version of why it doesn't say that is that, if there's no
special formatting, then that box will be checked to represent that
there is no special formatting. But I suppose we could change the label
depending upon which situation we're in.

I just noticed that these imported docs have some rag-right (left)
formatting in them which were left over from the import, and some
randomly justified paragraphs. In this case the button as labeled
makes perfect sense because that's what it does.
But where I ran into this was in trying to format a footnote to which
I wouldn't think "justified" would apply except for the fact that the
marker is in a justified paragraph.
From my view I was trying to format a footnote and get rid of an
extra blank line in the footnote footer region. So it didn't occur to
me that "justified" would apply to that. But maybe it does. (paragraph
formatting is otherwise defined in the class?) I think that even if
"justified" is correct, it was a little mis-leading -- perhaps just
due to my ignorance. However the original text "Apply Paragraph's
Default Alignment" by itself is accurate because it would have implied
to me that it might properly format a footnote -- which it does!
Now that I know that it does properly format what ever style, that it
says "justified" isn't a problem. But then I don't know if it applies
to every style to which it could be applied. If it does, I don't see a
problem leaving it there since it would be accurate in that case. If
it doesn't, then either leaving it out or having it change by context
would keep it accurate.
I can see why this detail was a long discussion. I hope my
user-feedback is of some help. You guys are doing an awesome job!
