> Currently the handling of [above paragraph spacing] is inconsistent.
I submit that this is not really inconsistent. It makes good sense to apply the
"above spacing" of a paragraph at the start of the document, and after an
explicit page break.

MS Word also applies 'above spacing' at the start of a document, and after
explicit section/paragraph page breaks (although the way it does it is very
different from native ODT). Thus the current behaviour for cases (1) and (2) is
a good thing.

> (3) But collapsed after a new page caused by a paragraph break
I agree that the behaviour is different when a paragraph naturally starts at
the top of a page. However, the general purpose of above/below spacing is to
separate paragraphs from each other, and that certainly has already happened
when the paragraphs are on different pieces of paper.

This also matches how MS Word handles this particular (3) situation. Thus the
current behaviour for this edge case is a good thing.

This should be marked as NOTABUG / WONTFIX.
