Is there a way to show only paragraph returns (not the spaces between characters) when show control characters is turned on? (See signature for app and OS versions.)

Ventura Publisher (Windows) has a preference to select which control characters to display. I'm used to displaying only paragraph markers, to make sure that soft returns aren't where they shouldn't be.

at the end, the proposal will need to go to https://bugs.scribus.net , but the discussion can take place in here.
