Patch looks fine (i'll put it in); 2 nitpicks.

why is the ideal distance dependent on being raggedright or not? I'd like to
use raggedright in stead of  linewidth = -1 in some examples, but
that's only useful if the spacing remains the same.

I'd like a separate setting for this one. By default, just be as wide
as the bounds. With a special flag, be as wide as some specified
dimension (eg. you could add a 'width property.)
