Subject: Startparagraph oddities

There appears to be an inconsistency in the implementation of
\startparagraph. When it is used with one argument (or two by my reading
of the source) it defines \stopparagraph with a terminal \endgraf, yet
with no arguments this is not done. Strangely (to me) it also appears to
insert a line-break before \startparagraph[]. The example below
demonstrates these issues.
I would expect to have \endgraf inserted with each \stopparagraph
regardless of the argument count.
There is also a wiki issue with overloading of the command name
\startparagraph. The existing command entry points to the paragraphs
mechanism for setting up parallel paragraphs in columns. There is also a
\startParagraph command described for the t-pararef module. There is no
mention of \startparagraph in the \startsection page, which might be an
appropriate place. Perhaps some Wikipedia-style disambiguation mechanism
is needed.
