A fair cop, although it should be noted that LRF doesn't allow ragged right and does a pretty terrible job of full justification .

I haven't noticed major crashing issues for normal content with either, to be honest.

Although more fair to just say that I'm not terribly interesting in improving the LRF support, which would probably require a re-write to make the HTML->LRF engine work as a completely CSS-based HTML renderer. However, if you or someone else would be interested in doing it, I'd be willing to help.
