 Replying to [comment:4 demetris]:
 > What’s wrong with the grammar?  “Paragraph” is perfectly common as a
 verb, and “to auto-paragraph” is used often for this kind of operation.

 To be fair, I didn't say that there was anything wrong with the grammar, I
 said that I disliked it.  I don't believe that changing things into verbs
 is a particularly friendly construct in every event, and in this case I
 don't believe that using "auto-paragraphing" would be any more descriptive
 of what happens than the existing text. (Neither is true IMO).

 Equally I'm not convinced that the existing text is too long for the
 space.  There is still plenty of white space around it in my view.  Maybe
 if you have a tiny screen, but the box is pretty wide anyway.

 If I were going to change this text to anything, it would probably be
 "Keep line breaks."
