--- Comment #7 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
The justification after a line break was added in OOo 2.0 era (see also i13507)
and then UI was adjusted to "Allow configuration of behavior when a line break
is inserted" (see also i45491)

Between i13507 (2004) and i45491 (2007) the default was enabled true to justify
after line break-- but there was no UI to override. That was added for i45491,
and the default enabled true compatibility setting was continued. 

I just verified that current Microsoft Word 2016 (16.0.11029.20045) continues
this behavior with a line justified paragraphs being justified to full width
(too much white space) when a line break is inserted. So it remains a
legitimate "compatibility" setting.

Personally, I would think disabled false and non-justified is a better default.
Some of the later discussions of i13507 and dupes suggest that might have been
the better route.
