If finding such good fonts is a significant effort, we could have
users complain about ugly display because they didn't invest that
effort. This stuff should work OOTB as much as possible, or else we
should make it opt-in.

I think we should indeed improve the alignment and filling
infrastructure as a prerequisite for wider use of variable-pitch fonts
and faces. I think we have everything we need in the display engine,
it's just a question of making better use of it in Lisp.
