Sections
========
Word supports the notion of a *section*, having distinct page layout settings.
This is how, for example, a document can contain some pages in portrait layout
and others in landscape. Section breaks are implemented completely differently
from line, page, and column breaks. The former adds a ``<w:pPr><w:sectPr>``
element to the last paragraph in the new section. The latter inserts
a ``<w:br>`` element in a run.
The last section in a document is specified by a ``<w:sectPr>`` element
appearing as the last child of the ``<w:body>`` element. While this element
is optional, it appears that Word creates it for all files. Since most files
have only a single section, the most common case is where this is the only
``<w:sectPr>`` element.
Additional sections are specified by a ``w:p/w:pPr/w:sectPr`` element in the
last paragraph of the section. Any content in that paragraph is part of the
section defined by its ``<w:sectPr>`` element. The subsequent section begins
with the following paragraph.
When a section break is inserted using the Word UI, the following steps
occur:
1. The next-occurring ``<w:sectPr>`` element is copied and added to the
current paragraph. (It would be interesting to see what happens when that
paragraph already has a ``<w:sectPr>`` element.)
2. A new paragraph is inserted after the current paragraph. The text occuring
after the cursor position is moved to the new paragraph.
3. The start-type (e.g. next page) of the next-occuring ``<w:sectPr>``
element is changed to reflect the type chosen by the user from the UI.
Word behavior
-------------
* A paragraph containing a section break (<w:sectPr> element) does not
produce a ¶ glyph in the Word UI.
* The section break indicator/double-line appears directly after the text of
the paragraph in which the <w:sectPr> appears. If the section break
paragraph has no text, the indicator line appears immediately after the
paragraph mark of the prior paragraph.

indicator appears directly after Paragraph 1 text, with no intervening
¶ mark.
