p has default margins. That alone is enough for us not to adopt p as the default paragraph separator. Also, unfortunately, there are many legacy contents that rely on the fact webkit uses div as the paragraph separator so we need a global or per editing-host switch regardless. I almost want a global switch to toggle between legacy UA-specific behavior and new spec-compliant behavior. - Ryosuke
