I agree that this would be the best option since it would allow everyone to choose what pleases them. The same ebook could be adjusted on the ereader to accomodate different screen widths since full justification tends to work better on wider screens.

When I'm making PDFs to fit my reader, I use left justification.
Since I use a larger base size (13 points) I do the same when making PDFs for my ereader to avoid the large gaps between the words. For me, it provides the best-looking results.
