The text in the eBooks themselves is neither 'ragged right' nor justified. A paragraph in the source is basically one long line of text surrounded by <p>paragraph</p> tags.

You can specify that these should be justified within the epub file itself, but it is up to the reading system to perform this task.

As Hadrien mentions, this should be up to the users, and I see no reason why a reading system cannot have this option.
