I perfer the CSS method personally. I just create an extra class which adds a fair bottom margin. Then just append that to the pre-break paragraph. It also makes it possible to make the changes via regex - find a p tag followed by a filler div/p (i.e. filled with nbsp/\s/\t etc). Replace with the first paragraph with the class appended (a bit tricky, but I'm sure I have examples somewhere).

I prefer using the basic tags, i/b/u too—however, the u tag however is not part of the spec(or xhtml), and you will generate errors in regards to this. However since it's so sparsely used in novels, and most of the time it will be used for headings and such, appending it to an existing style is often easier and cleaner anyway.
