Thinking about it, I found that LaTeX already has this.
You can write a three-paragraph document as:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\section{heading}
\par{first paragraph}\par{second paragraph}\par{a last
long paragraph}
\end{document}
The empty line is just an alias for improved readability.
(And I would like LyX to continue using it in LaTeX output.)

Sorry, I cannot follow here: using the term environment for an object
that cannot be written in \begin{section} ... \end{section} form is
misleading. And every object (be it inline or box object) has a defined
beginning and end. Only command switches (like \bfseries or \appendix)
have no end.

Yes, it is feasible to use insets for all objects. But I am not sure
wheter it is wise.
