<pre>Description:
When I insert a real newline (i.e. "Shift + Enter") after a certain
justification-formatted paragraph, the last line of the paragraph above that
newline gets force-formatted to an extreme justification. That for example
means, that when there are just two words in that line, the second word gets
completely right-aligned, so that an enormous amount of space gets inserted
between two words.
I don’t think that this makes any sense. In the salutation I for example often
write “Best regards,[REAL_NEWLINE]Frank” for the spacing not getting too big.
Another use-case for me is when I want to arrange several points of a bullet
list, which consist of more lines but should just get one bullet. I think
creating new formats for these kinds of content/arrangements would be overkill,
and I don’t see an advantage in the current behavior, which is why I think that
this is a bug.
⇒ A maximum amount of good-looking space between the words of a paragraph
should always be respected. When a line (maybe just the last line) of a
justified paragraph would violate that maximum space, this line should be
left-aligned instead.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new document and select justification ["Ctrl + B" (at least for
Germany)].
2. Write two words and hit "Shift + Enter" for avoiding paragraph spacing to
the next line.
Actual Results:
The two words are completely left- and right-aligned.
Expected Results:
The space between those two words is way too gigantic, and justification should
be altered to left-alignment for that line.
Reproducible: Always
