The CSS3-text proposal adds the "text-align-last" attribute to justify the last line of text in a paragraph. This is useful if your text is being split into columns and you don't want the last line left-aligned - which, regardless of what you want, is the normal practice as Boris and others have said. See http://www.w3.org/TR/css3- text/#text-align-last Except for this case, I can't think of any reason why the last line of a paragraph would ever be handled differently simply because it's the last line, and therefore no reason why this rule would ever be used.
