Summary0014369: whitespace affects justification for centred text in undesirable ways
DescriptionThe last line of a centred block of text in certain configurations appears to depend on the trailing whitespace in ways that are not easy to predict.
Steps To ReproduceUsing the Josefin Sans Bold font in all-caps, type a block of text in a sufficiently large size that the last line is almost as wide as the containing element, and the previous line is almost exactly the same width.
Additional InformationI'm attaching images with control characters visible to illustrate the problem more clearly.

One space doesn't overflow, but it seems to push the line leftward.

If you add two spaces, the original one overflows and the centering is fixed, but now you have an empty line you didn't want.

Switching to shift-newlines doesn't help...

Okay I have no idea why this happens.
