I do not quite get the relationship between the font settings and the wrong
insertion of white space. From a 'black box' perspective, with the webkit
option Konqueror computes correctly the space to distribute -- so I'd say it
has the fonts right -- but then fails do distribute effectively, so unless the
document has at least two space-characters between words and there is no
in-line element inside a word, it renders ugly.

Yes. I tried this; unsurprisingly, I get the same: I detected this problem
after a new install, so my account was newly created. Konqueror had the default
webkit web engine option, and when I changed this, the rendering was all right.
