All other text editor i seen behaved the same about justified alignment...

Not because they want to be similart to any other alignment... but because its
usecase want this... like in news paper.. where they want the text to be placed
from margin to margin... even if there is 4 column on the page... and the lines
are really short... they use it to make sure the text start and end perfectly
at the same position.

I think that is the same reason why the last line of a justified text is behave
differently.. because the common usecase want that... it would be ugly if only
two small word would be there separated by a huge gap.

We dont have to allow cursor to run off from the page.. that is not a feature..
that is a side effect that may should be limited... but the limitation is not
implemented.
