One issue with <p> is distinguishing paragraphs with a text-indent and those without. Some CSS defines <p> with a text-indent and then has a class="noindent", typically for the first paragraph of a section, while others define <p> without an indent, then add a class="indent" for every paragraph other than the first.
Is one of these more canonical?
