Yes, but significantly limit places where it is unacceptable. And character spacing looks much better for me than 5% glyph extension. And in preflight verifier should be warning (as switch-able option) for exceeded maximum space width. For me extending glyphs is just ugly option at all, for you increasing char spacing is ugly - maybe there should be both methods used at once.

But maybe remove hyphenation from last word of previous line would be correct and helpful. cezaryece
