Creating the warning label in the image below is currently a lot of work as the only way to set background colors is to use a Table -> TableRow -> TableCell -> Paragraph ...
but Tables required you to specify an exact column width, which is not always known and hard to compute correctly.

I propose the feature to set a background color on a Paragraph. A "padding" property on a Paragraph would help deciding how large the background should be. It would be different from the margin property, as margins "push" other content away, while padding "expand" the current element.
