Not sure about paragraph numbering, but check out "wc" at the command prompt.. At first glance I don't see a way to make it number the paragraphs, but it will tell you how many lines... Not sure if that is useful or not.
Maybe browse the comments at Groklaw? I think they need to do this sort of thing on a regular basis, and it gets talked about once in a while.
