 Remove `justifytext` and move the other three down to the kitchen sink.

 Cool :thumbs-up:

 remove it. From what I remember, we removed it in a major release and then
 re-introduced it in a subsequent point release because it caused
 significant confusion and uproar.

 semantic inline styles and markup to the database. If we don't remove it,
 then at least we should change it to make it better (add css class instead
 of inline styles, and add css for it to the head of the page).

 For what it's worth, I totally agree with you.

 > Maybe move this to a separate ticket if so?

 Good idea.
