        <pre>The function remains valid as implemented for OOo (see also i13592), just being
misapplied by OP.

Review of the control [1] shows it is intended to be applied when positioned at
the end of a Paragraph--to prevent the continuation of the Direct Formatting
from that point should additional text be added.

See no reason to remove, and its writer shell action DontExpandFormat() might
be another tool to solve other paste with/without formatting issues. 

The tip-of-the-day string for it [2] probably needs a tweak--"Typing new
paragraph text in..."
