For one thing, in narrow(ish) columns, ragged-right might be preferable. Then
again, it may be that the way it looks on my end isn't what's intended:

Left menu, Category and Function Name tables do take up about 800 pixels in
width, leaving very little space for Description on small resolution displays,
mostly because of the large font size used and identifiers as long as
"largestPartialIntersectionWeighted".
While there is little we can do with identifier names, I believe font size
could be reduced by about 30% without sacrificing readability. At least in
Opera the page looks well even at 70% scale.
(Absolute) font size does not belong to the page designer, instead to the user.
Just press dedicated key binding (often ctrl-), or whatever command to set it
appropriately.
But I agree a page's structure should avoid /requiring/ to much width just to
be corrctly displayed; and thus /force/ users to scale text down. Very "unnice"
to people with sight problems (not my case, but...).
