Hi all,

(Catching up on the traffic, so a bit late to the thread.)

I don't use org's export facilities, so I am not sure how and where to
object this into org's export process. But, the LaTeX way is to use the
parskip package.

Please do reconsider, though. Just about every book on my shelves follows
what you label a 'strange style,' for the good reason that the style you
favour can result in ambiguity. (A paragraph that ends a page, takes up the
entire last line and is followed by a new paragraph cannot be distinguished
from a paragraph that spans the page break.)

Best,

Brian vdB
