I have found out, after a good hour of experimentation, that side-by-side
paragraphs simply do NOT work in a header.

Try this.  Build yourself a piece of letterhead.  Define first page special
in the section.  open the first page header.  Write a aragraph of text.
Write a second paragraph of text, right justified.  Select each paragraph,
and turn on side-by-side in the paragraph dialog.

It doesn't work.  This works fine in the main window, but not in the
headers. (no, the two paragraphs don't overwrite each other, either. Two
paragraphs of one character each still refuse to go side by side).

Mutter.  Time to redesign the letterhead, I guess.
