Comment:

 I'll re-open this bug for the following reasons:

 1. The hack of using Additional CSS is not better. It blasts everything
 including posts that should not have full justification. On some themes it
 can also impact CODE segments.
 2. "Install a plug-in" is **never** the correct answer. One of the reasons
 WordPress has become so unstable is with so many marginal plug-ins you can
 never track down the actual problem.
 3. Switching to HTML and navigating to the blocks that require full
 justification so one can hack in <p style="text-align: justify;"> is a
 royal pain.
 4. Professional writers use full justification because that is how we
 print books too. When you see a ragged edge, that's an amateur.
 5. Professional writers really don't care about idiot phones. We write for
 people with attention spans longer than a Tweet.
 6. It is unprofessional to provide a feature then take it away. In the IT
 world this is called regression and it is always undesirable.
