After Bug 276079 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=276079> is landed, I intent to turn CSS text-justify property on by default on all platforms in Bug 1343512 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1343512>. It has been developed behind the layout.css.text-justify.enabled preference.
Summary: This property selects the justification method used when a line’s alignment is set to justify, i.e., text-align: justify, text-align-last: justify. Status in other browsers [1]: Currently, the values specified by spec. are auto | none | inter-word | inter-character plus distribute as a legacy alias for inter-character. *IE & Edge* Supports inter-word, but not inter-character or none. Also supports the following unofficial values: distribute , distribute-all-lines, distribute-center-last, inter-cluster, inter-ideograph, newspaper. *Blink* inter-word and distribute values are supported behind the "Experimental platform features" flag. Bug: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=248894 *WebKit* According to caniuse [1], WebKit doesn't support any of these values yet. Bug: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99945 This feature was previously discussed in this "intent to implement" thread: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/mozilla.dev. platform/text-justify%7Csort:relevance/mozilla.dev.platform/I00tLlnmTYk/ Tz8wcRTJBAAJ <https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21searchin/mozilla.dev.platform/text-justify%7Csort:relevance/mozilla.dev.platform/I00tLlnmTYk/Tz8wcRTJBAAJ> Bug to turn on by default: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cg i?id=1343512 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1343512> Link to standard: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-3/#text-justify-property AFAIK, CSS Text Module Level 3 is listed as an upcoming CR [2], so the spec. is stable enough. Target release: Since we are in the late Firefox 54, I'd prefer let text-justify ride the train in Firefox 55 (next Nightly).
