As I try to envision the visual appearance of this, I have to ask
whether this is something one should really want to do, and therefore,
maybe it's not such a good thing to make it easy. After all, you can
double-click the first word of each paragraph, then make it bold in
Properties > Text (in Edit Contents of Frame mode) or Story Editor.
