Some time ago I made a patch to allow for regular expressions to define
paragraph and section borders.
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/vim_dev/6r6qX8W6I_Y/pQPexgLWI6UJ

I think the patch is still available here:
https://github.com/chrisbra/vim-mq-patches/blob/master/paragraphs_re

It probably does not apply cleanly anyhow and it might need some more
work. So if someone could test it and we can further define how it
should behave, we can probably finish it up. However, considering the
many todo items, it will probably take a while until this will be merged
but I guess, tests would help ;)


Best,
Christian
