No, it is usually a combination of spaces and newlines, e.g. in:

<div>
  <p>
  c <a href="#">Hello</a>
  </p>
</div>

...where point is at "c". Then I'd just merge the lines using M-SPC
DEL or M-0 M-SPC. Then I would probably do it again:

<div>
  <p><a href="#">Hello</a>c
  </p>
</div>

...where point is at "c". The result:

<div>
  <p><a href="#">Hello</a></p>
</div>

Sounds interesting. So basically we would make `paragraph-join' the
same as "my" version of `just-one-space'? Or did you have something
different in mind?
