I'm not very familiar with Minipages, but this would require the use of a 
minipage? (Not that I have a problem with that, just enquiring?)

Here's a suggested new Paragraph dialog. It doesn't address the points you 
raise and it is a first attempt only. Care to comment? Where would you put 
the additional items?

3 tabbed folders
Folder 1. General: 
        stuff about this paragraph
Folder 2: Surrounds: 
        spaces, lines, pagebreaks above & below
Folder 3. Minipage
        Can we get rid of this entirely? Is it not covered by the InsetMinipage?

Note that all the inputs have an associated choice for the correct units. The 
inputs would acept integers only.
