Entire paragraph area table, with proposed explanation

Some points:

1. Ok to keep ”Entire” with ”Entire Paragraph Area” for both Horizontal and
Vertical -  primarily to keep a parallel with:

Entire page             Page  text Area
Entire frame            Frame text area
Entire paragraph area   Paragraph text area

(alternative is to drop ”Entire” for all, but ”page” and ”frame” alone seem
more indefinite).

2.  Also ok to keep ”Entire Paragraph Area” label for both Horizontal and
Vertical controls – even though they are applied independently, and may have
slight differences because they focus separately on horizontal and vertical.

Primary reasons: to (a) indicate that the same ”region” (”container”) is being
used and (b) avoid introducing even more variation across the entire set of
positioning options.

3. Do not need to ”explain” the meaning of ”Entire Paragraph Area” in general. 
The work flow in the positioning dialog is to position Horizontal to Entire
Paragraph Area and position Vertical to Entire Paragraph. These options can be
used independently. No requirement that both options must be used at the same
time in positioning an object.  

=>  sufficient to describe positioning for Entire Paragraph Area for Horizontal
alone.  

Attachment provides a table of different contexts for Entire Paragraph Area for
Horizontal.

Proposal is to use a table like this to describe Entire Paragraph Area.  Rather
than trying to find a generic description (and forcing the reader to guess how
the description applies in different contexts). It seems better – for
documentation – to give an exhaustive list of the contexts. 

- I do not know if the table is exhaustive, but I tried.
- Maybe the three multicolumn contexts (text, section, frame) can/should be
collapsed into one entry.
- a comparable table would be made for the Vertical option of Entire paragraph
area.
