I know a few people have voiced a similar complaint. It might well be the case that this is actually quite difficult for Kobo to implement, depending how their HTML parser works. I guess we'll find out when the new firmware is released...
If you are working with un-DRM encumbered ePubs, and don't mind getting your hands dirty with a little CSS editing it's easy to fix this on a per-book basis. Or, you can use Calibre and convert epub -> epub and change the justification to "left" or "justified" per your preference. (I prefer left justified text, since IMO the Kobo screen is too small for fully justified text to display properly).
If by line spacing you mean removing the top/bottom margin from paragraphs, again this can be changed in calibre during the conversion process. (My preference is to remove the margin from paragraphs and indent the paragraphs, to fit more lines per screen).
