===============================
The effect of specifying paragraph Body in every text
container is to prevent ancestor format inheritance.
If any ancestor has format rules that modify paragraph
Body, those format changes will also be applied to the
child element unless ancestor inheritance is stopped
by specifying an element paragraph format.
