Like Shaheed, I am not in favour for using <br> tags as export of the end of 
a KWord paragraph. <br> is stated in the HTML 4.01 Specification as a forced 
line break, not as an end of paragraph.

However, I am in favour of adding the feature of forced line breaks in 
KWord., as many file formats support them (for example, HTML, AbiWord, MS 
Word and Rich Text Format.) The forced line breaks could then be transformed 
in <br> tags.

Just a parenthesis: AbiWord (and also MS Word if I recall well) have 
additionally a forced column break and a forced page break (also to an odd 
page or to an even page). I think it would be also interesting to have those 
features in KWord too.
