--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
Controlling interword spacing to optimize legibility should be possible, but
would depend on how much dev effort it would need to implement/refactor.
Otherwise isn't this out of scope for an office suite, trending deep into the
realm of Desktop Publishing? And not clear the work it would require is
justified.
IIUC we work simply with spacing derived from font metrics, with some limited
ability in GUI to adjust glyph kerning, or apply kashida, for intraword spacing
Paragraph justification works against the margin settings to distribute word
spacing, and revise hyphenation when needed.
While "register true" is applied at the page margins to assure paragraph lines
align page to page.
Who knows, perhaps some HarfBuzz magic?
