I haven't checked all the pages, but I think there's way more paragraphs
that look way cleaner and better with the justified text than there are
occurrences of very long unbreakable words that make one line look too
spacious.  But of course it should be added to dd, li as well as p.

I think it wouldn't look good with our old page, but with the new
layout, it makes it look way clearer.
