Same as in the tabular-dialog? Well you don't need a button controler if you do that, but what you need is a lot of interaction with the main core as the dialogs should update automatically to the new cursor position. After that you cannot f.ex. apply a paragraph layout to more than one paragraph only if you select them before but maybe you want to exclude some in the middle then you have to go to every paragraph and do the same actions again. Are you really sure this is the best option? It seems good in general but then if you have a look at the details it seems to me not that good in "every" case.
