I have a feeling that he wants the "fill" to be "soft" on certain
paragraphs of his choosing.  The only mode that I know of where in
Emacs "persists" text properties is "Enriched Mode".

    (info "(emacs) Hard and Soft Newlines")

In other words, the user wants to configure right/left margins and
importantly the width of the text area on per-paragraph basis. In the
actual file, a paragraph will have no newline at all howsoever it may
be displayed.
