My initial reaction to the actual code is that it is short sighted and
changed in the wrong place.  A proper CSS implementation would allow
justification to be turned back on in nested structures (and possibly
not turned on at the outermost level).  This implementation assumes
that it is turned on by the HTML element, inherited through most,
and turned off by a few, and once off it it off until the element
that turned it off is popped from the parse stack.

It has also be associated with parsing information for elements, when
it really belongs with the style information for elements.

A full CSS implementation would associate at least the following
possibilities with each element (actually with a style selector pattern):
inherit, right, left, centre, or justify, not just the inherit and 
don't justify of the current patch.
