It would be nice, wouldn't it?

Have you tried it, and does it work?  Does it always work?

I've just looked at fill-paragraph's source, and it looks like it's
broken.  If it's called interactively, transient mark mode is enabled,
the mark "is active", the region is non-zero length, and it's currently
a full moon, each paragraph in the region is filled by calling
fill-region, bypassing fill-paragraph-function.  Or maybe I've missed
something.
