Oh, great.
What I would like to see as an implementation is being able to define an
option which contain a list of regular expressions (actually it can of
course also be a single regular expression) denoting where a paragraph
start.
Actually the whole current meaning of 'paragraphs' can be defined on top
of a similar option, so I see no reason for keeping the current meaning
of 'paragraphs'. But of course I'm completely ignoring backward
compatibility issues here (not only with vi, but also with past vim
versions). I don't know if Bram cares about those issues or not ...

No brilliant solutions thus far, the better I was able to produce (and
that I actually use for both mail and TeX) is the attached plugin. It
maps <F3> to a function toggling auto-format (i.e. the presence of 'a'
in 'formatoptions'). I switch off auto-format when editing headers/TeX
macros and switch it on later.
Really sub-optimal, I know, better ideas are welcome :-)
Cheers.
