chopped apart by line wrapping into multiple pseudo-paragraphs when the text

Hi Barbara. All of the br were converted into paragraph breaks in

convention. I will file an issue.
Here is the bug:

line of a paragraph printed alone at the bottom of the previous page.
The control for this can be set for any paragraph style. To set an

just does not sound right to me.
