Web browsers do text justification horribly. Beyond not hyphenating words, they also don't change the spacing inside the word. (I want to say this is kerning, but I can't determine if that applies to adjustable space, or only to the static space.) Until web browser can handle that, there's no reason to justify text on a webpage.

Reducing the how ragged the right-hand-side is involves better spacing not justification.
