I don't think that increasing the vertical space is a clear indicator and that would also be a waste of screen space. On the other hand, it seems odd outputting a pilcrow only in this case. Maybe a *small* vertical double arrow like those used for inserting a vertical space is more eye catching, or, perhaps, an arrow like the parbreak separator. -- Enrico
